No. I have purchased and traded witha guy who does. I have a few of these that i got from him. He recieved them from the players themselves.

Tony Taylor GU from 2007. Sean Bailey GU 2005. and Dewberry from 2009. all of these Gamers do not have raised bones. I am not aware of the bones ever being raised to that thickness or shine.

Re: Georgia Bulldogs Helmet

I think it's pretty clear in that picture. A former assistant equipment manager told me that the bones change. There isn't one single bone that they always use.

Re: Georgia Bulldogs Helmet

I have several pictures of the decals and bones. I haven't ever seen a very dominent raised bone award. This could be a distortion in that picture. Here are a few helmets I have and or have pictures of.

Here's a picture from the 2007 season. The white dawg bones are raised.

Re: Georgia Bulldogs Helmet

I now know my helmet is not a game used one but as Michael said its hard to see the true colour of a helmet as you could take 10 pictures of the same helmet with 10 different cameras and get 10 different shades of red !!

but that is one cool helmet you have !!

Re: Georgia Bulldogs Helmet

There's actually a filter on the eBay picture so the color is not truly represented. I have a replica helmet and next to it the red is much closer to your helmet than my replica. I do believe it's a gamer however I'm concerned the dawg bones may have been added later by the previous owner.

Re: Georgia Bulldogs Helmet

Hey guys. Actually looking at both of these helmets. In my opinion neither are true gamers. The first helmet the decals and the helmet color is way off. Georgia uses a color called "Georgia" Red. Schutt and Riddell use this color specifically for UGA. The second helmet thats on Ebay the Color and the Bone awards are way off. The bones of the gamers arentshiny and are actually flat white, and are much smaller in size. Here are a few game helmets that I have in my coillection. David Pollack GU helmet from 2002 Sugar Bowl. I have had a few True Gamers and this helmet is Photomatched to that game. GO Dawgs!!
