Nice! I cant remember the size of one of the 1st ones I ever caught when I was a kid just starting out. It was upper 50s to maybe low 60s. Somewhere there is a Polaroid of it with me holding it. I remember we put it in a snow sled to drag it to the house. Still have the tanned hide.

I think it was a Female. Caught it in a bridger 330 on an H stand going to one of its bank dens. I will try to get a pic of some of the 12” diameter oak trees this thing has been cutting down

In Oregon we turn kits like that loose so they can grow.
Just kidding. Great catch!

Would have been interesting, had it been live ..... in a snare. Would make a nice mount along side of the 2 piece stump whittled down (or cut near through). Sure, post those pics if you can, thanks.
