With out being able to see a couple tines, I think I could confidently put him in the 315- 320 class

I have more pics somewhere that have him in different angles, I'll post them if I find them! Thank you though, pops and I are trying to gauge some of the bulls up in the unit we hunt!

Colockum herd! This is the only other pic I could find, not much of a different angle though.

Nice and wide with long beams, but he has a few short points. I would go 330 gross if I had to guess

Yeah those genetics are running around up there with shorter thirds, I've seen it on a couple bulls up there, one of which was way bigger than this guy, honestly probably could fit this bulls rack inside of it. But proportion wise his thirds were lacking.

He should be pretty impressive if he's still around this season or next

Wish we could've got better pics but here's the best I could scavenge of a bigger one. Probably the biggest elk I've ever seen. Thanks for all the input and info on that bull :tup:

Hard to say, this was about 3 years ago. We usually see a couple bulls of this caliber each trip up there(2-5 days) but this year fires and all that did a number and we didn't see much for big game.  He sure was a stud though!

340 tops with sub 300 fronts. Right around 320 because his mass looks consistent and he's got goober beams. :twocents:

His 3's kill the score.

330-335
Descent fronts, weak 3rds , great tops. IMO  :dunno:  :tup:

He'd get relieved of the air in his lungs. I'd give him 320-330".
