What do you think this would score?
« on: August 17, 2015, 11:43:44 AM »
I'm not much for scoring or judging elk by numbers,  but am curious what others would guess this bull at.  I usually judge more by the Betty Crocker system than the B&C system!

I could be not even in the right county here, but I think he's a stud bull. 330" or thereabouts.
:fire.:

" 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

Stub bull! 336 gross is my guess, go kill him! ( when it's legal of course) ( for the internet police)  :chuckle:

First guess was 315-320, pretty cool bull, love the left dagger.  Can you hunt him?
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

In my book he would score a brief glance and then an arrow to the chest!  :archery_smiley:
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

Low 300, he is pretty cool looking but a young bull with a ton of potential. 

I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

It doesn't matter what you think...

About 75" or so... Oh wait, you mean the branched bull. You know you are an eastside Washington elk hunter when you look for spikes   :chuckle:

Nice bull and I would say 320's or so.

The big one looks a little narrow. Guessing 310 The smaller one would not make a very good gun rack, he is missing the extra point on the one side. Both would be good on the grill if legal. But personally I would let both walk!  :nono: Then shoot that little guy on my shoulder that said don't shoot!  :mgun: :nono:
