Nice bull no doubt, especially to a west sider like me. . . But is that really 350"? I've never really cared for score, but I scored a set I found in Idaho and came out at about 310" gross, barely 300" net with if I remember right a 36 or 38" spread credit. It's possible I screwed up the scoring I guess, I've only attempted it a few times.
Attached picture is of the girlfriend holding them. They looks pretty similar to me.
Regardless, a stud bull though like I said before!

With a month to grow after the pic, I think he will get there 350...
Score means nothing to me either, just guessing

I agree, he's all done growing in that picture. He's a beauty bull either way.

I've got pics of a good bull at the same time frame, and pics of him a few days ago. The only thing really different is his 5's and main beams. He's not dramatically different. That's a shooter bull for sure, maybe not 350 though?

OK hold the Bus ! Like I told RT lets see where that bull ends up I'd say he would finish about 340 maybe a lil more . He's a good representation of the species for sure. I'm gonna put in much more boot time before I make a choice , but if that bull walks within forty yards he may have a problem. Secondly I'd like to thank RT for inviting Me into his camp and offering up any of his things to me without reserve . My buddy Dan and I showed up Friday and meet his friend jeff and him at there camp. They welcomed us in just like one of the gang (thanks Buddy ). We scouted and spent some time learning the area , really pretty thick and tough to scout while the bulls weren't vocal , but we did see elk . It seemed like every spot is strait up or down and you know where the elk are , in the steep and deep. on a great note I got the bowtech shooting well and the broad heads flew true out to 70 yards . RT is a no bs guy and tells you like it is , some may not like it but I respect that and find him to be a honest strait up fella that im sure will go through hell and high water chasing elk with me .That gives me respect . His buddy Jeff is a hoot and a fun guy to have in your camp. While leaving camp today a yote stood there for just a bit to long and took one in the brain from 72 yards with the .45acp. I really hope my season goe's that way.This is gonna not be a cake walk but I'm gonna give her hell. RT and Jeff my have the archery bug if I can round up enough arrows !

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but don't bulls keep putting on inches thru July and into early August?
I thought 1st-2nd week of August was when they quit growing bone.
If so, and that dude had a couple weeks to put on inches, then....
If not, and he's done, well then.....
