Missed opportunity....any score guess?
« on: September 16, 2013, 11:10:23 AM »
So after a week,  the action was very hit and miss with hot weather.  But I tailed a heard and got lots of photos of the local bulls, but this was the heard bull. Any guess on score?  I missed seeing him at the spot by 10 min  :bash: ,  Thats why they call it hunting.....

330.. hard to say from one angle and im no expert.. looks good on the fronts and fairly decent main beam length. 3rds are somewhat short but definitely a shooter

Great bull and a cool trail cam picture. I think he's around 300-310".

" 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

That's a nice bull!  I'm no expert, but one angle can never tell the score story.  Coach's bull looks short on the 3rd from the side, but when you see it from the front you can tell they're huge...

Assuming average spread and kind of stubby tops, but good mass, I'll guess 300.  Shooter any day.   PM me GPS Co'ords and I'll let you measure it yourself in a few weeks  :chuckle:

I would guess closer to 280, but a great bull.
