How big is he?
« on: July 29, 2013, 04:35:49 PM »
Any idea what this bull would score? Some of you have seen him in my trail cam thread. I'm not good at scoring but I'm curious to how big he is.

His top end is ridiculous. Monsterous 3's.  I don't know where to start with a score.

I'm not so good at scoring from at picture but I am pretty good at field scoring. Shoot me a pm on just exactly where this bull is and I will go score him for you.   :IBCOOL:

There's only one way to find out for sure. Shoot him and have it done officially :chuckle:.

Guessing I would have to say 350+ depending on his width. Definitely a shooter in any area of WA and probably any other state. His 3rd's make him very unique.

I agree his fronts are going to hurt his score a little. I honestly think 345ish would be pretty close.

I would say about 360, he will grow a few more inches by the time the season get here.  If you have that tag best of luck to you.

He is easily over 350.  If I had to guess with the limited picture that you have I would say 370 to 380.
