Chris, welcome here at NitroExpress!

I personally would shoot the eland of your '06 client in a flash as my personal eland trophy. He has everything I care for in a trophy. Except horn length! The bow-hunted Roland Ward model is IMHO not a trophy. Yes, your bow hunter should be very happy with his eland, but by ‘my definition’ it does not look like a trophy at all!

Maybe I should rephrase my questions a bit:
(1) Has anyone hunted an eland that is verifiable really old, about 10 years plus, as judged by teeth wear by a really knowledgeable person or known history of introduction, that did not have a tuft of dark hair on his forehead?
(2) Has anyone hunted an eland that can be verified as still young, about 5 years or less, but he had a tuft of dark hair on the forehead?
(3) Can anyone verify that the size of the tuft grows continually? In other words; the older the bigger the tuft?

In good hunting.
