Well it's not really huge for a moose shed but still very respectable for the area I was in. A buddy of mine figured it to be probably a 50" bull.

I’ve been hunting a big buck pretty hard the past several times out so on this day I wanted to explore another area but still staying close to his home grounds. Found some great rubs and a few scrapes but the highlight of the day was this. I found it lying on a small island of hemlocks in the middle of a good size bog. I should head back with my hip boots and really start getting back into shed hunting. This area is some real sweet prime moose country. In my days of living in MD I wasn’t too bad of a shed hunter.

I thought that piece missing from the tip was from fighting or rubbing but it turns out that moose will bite chew on their owns sheds. It was made from another moose (maybe the same bull who dropped it) biting the antler. At first I didn't believe it but after looking in our state antler and skull record book, there's another moose shed with the same exact bit taken out of it. Pretty weird huh?
