    For the chamois guys out there! How big

    Back yesterday from a week up the rakaia. No chamois harmed but what are we thinking for size?
    1st picture unicorn. My guess was a good 10.5 or so.
    2nd buck about 8-8.5 small bases.
    3rd buck about 9-9.5 bigger bases. And then some awesomeness

    Hard to tell with that first one as you can't see the hook. Here is a photo I took of a doe with very long horns but little hook. Looked very impressive front on.
