A few elk sheds

I showed you guys some of my deer sheds from the first part of this year, here are some of the elk. Nothing too huge but most are from this year or last so many are still running the hills getting bigger.

Nicely done bonepicker. The bigger one's, are they a set?

There are 2, 3 or 4 sets in this pic. (2 are definitely sets, and with both of the two others, one side is notypical and the other side is normal and they were found within 1/2 mile or less of each other so they could be set. Maybe I'll post pictures of just those and let you guys decide. But to answer your question, no the biggest 2 are not a set.

These are the 2 that have the best chance of being a match. It is hard to say for sure because the one side is nontypical but the coloring is the same and the burrs are almost identical even with the nontypical nature of the one side. The third point is different and the top end is not identical but that could be because of the injury or whatever cause the antler to go weird. What do you guys think?
