Frankfort, KY -  Two bull elk taken in Eastern Kentucky this season appear bigger than the current state record. However, will they beat the old record held by Rita Tharp of Bedford? On Dec. 15, officials with the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources will officially score the two sets of antlers to determine the answer.

Paul Cummins of Mount Vernon and Matthew Hall of Middlesboro will bring antlers from the bulls they took during the 2005 elk season to the Salato Wildlife Education Center in Frankfort to be officially scored. The Salato Center is located on the grounds of the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources, two miles west of Frankfort off U.S. 60. Scoring will start at 1 p.m.

Antlers must dry at least 60 days before they can be officially scored in the Boone and Crockett Club trophy system. Cummins and Hall took their bulls Oct. 1, the opening day of modern gun season for elk.

The antler scoring event is open to the public.
