The questions of the day .... what's the highest scoring muley shed you've ever found? How about the best scoring elk shed? Have you ever found a buck shed with more than 10 points?

I've posted about this before...don't know what it would "score", but I found left side 7 point antler that had 57 inch main beam and 21-22 inch brow tines. Traded and went on the RMEF Elk Tour as "415 Gross Nevada Sheds Bull" in 2011. (Probably a shed of a lifetime for me!)
As for biggest muley shed, does a 12-pointer count (eastern count: 5 points with 7 distinct brow tines ;-) )? Didn't score this one, either...and I've been on some mammoth hikes hoping to match it up with no luck!
This is the one that got me completely hooked on shed hunting, almost ten points and this one below is my biggest that went 90", sad to say i sold it to a guy that is trying to kill the buck
Over the years, I have found numerous sheds that have 10 or more scorable points. I found one that actually has 18 scorable points. But my biggest sheds are actually a matched set, an 11x11. Both sheds score 111 and change.
It's been a few years now and if this buck is still around he's getting old. Haven't seen him since the day he dropped both sides right in front of me! I hunted hard for him too when the season finally rolled around, but he never showed. Just because he dropped them in front of me doesn't mean it was easy either. It was frustrating and stressful waiting for these sheds to finally drop, but in the end it paid off. I hesitated posting pictures until now. I do wish I knew what became of him...or if he's still alive and kicking...
Believe it or not, this is the one and only shed (I guess it counts as two) I've ever brought home with me. I have come across old chalky whites and never bother with them. Had I known what I know now, I probably never would've bothered. Let's just say he was a late-to-drop stubborn SOB that was commissioned by the devil to try to end my marriage and my career...but I can look back now with fond memories...
It's been 10 years now since I picked up my biggest set. I doubt I will ever beat this typical set with matching dual eyeguards.One side scores 96 the other 94, bringing this typical buck in at 213
My 2 biggest deer sheds score the exact same, 78 3/4! One would just score higher as a set because it would have a huge inside spread. My elk shed is off of a 370+ bull.
My best is this set I found in November 2013. Broken the horn in my left hand scored 125" repaired it is 130.5." The other side scored 97.5" The set repaired together is 251"
