Looks 340 gross to me, but score doesn't matter.  Stud bull.
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

He is a shooter for sure, if you think about him having no little character stickers, he would just be a five point, and there are not many five's that score much above 320 and even less that would go 370, if any. But his character makes him a stud old bull, shooter for sure

He's only really 5-with-stickers on his passenger side.  Driver's side he is a more than solid 6 point.  Plus the extras.  Looks to me like a 360's class bull that is only missing one foot long tine (his G5).  I'd still put him at 350".  I still think his thirds and his mass will make up for whatever he lacks on that 5 point antler.  Plus, if we are talking gross score, those stickers will add a couple of inches too.
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I'm going with 350" give or take 10" if we're talking gross scores.
Tons of mass, those 3rd's and all those little extras will add up quick.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Might need extra salt to eat that tough old critter.  Would score number one in my book.

His backend would screw up his score, but I sure the heck wouldn't care

I think Miles needs to shoot this guy so we can settle this dispute regarding the score... :chuckle:

Any guesses on this year’s score?  Started the thread with 2017 pics, here’s some from 2019.

Man you need to kill that bull! Cool looking as ever, awesome length and short mains. 347-353" but go kill him and prove me as being too conservative  :P

Looks like he definitely wasn't regressed in 2017  :chuckle:
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.
