I was certainly never talking B&C score...just body size and horn configuration. I'm not sure how this thread got diverted to trophy quality...it was certainly never my intent but southern rams are bigger bodied and typically don't have the number of tighter curls versus the northern rams. They do have more open curls but that certainly doesn't mean they score better. That is what's well documented and commonly accepted amoung sheep hunters that I know that have hunted throughout the province. It's definitely been my observation too.
