What does he score?
« on: January 24, 2009, 09:31:16 PM »
I'm not much into scoring antlers, to me its either big or it isn't.  But every time I show a pic of this bull I get asked "Whats he score?"  So I thought I'd give you all a chance to compare guesses.  Oh, yeah, one last thing, he's a roosevelt elk.  What's your guess?

The width is not clear to me but I come up with 367 gross at 45" for a spread credit.

Here's a frontal shot.  It was taken later in the rut, after the herd bull had snapped off the sword tine on his driver's side. :'(

" 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

After seeing the frontal he probably gets more for spread than I gave him!

I'd say 370-ish.  closer to 380 if he had longer fronts.

Sorry but you guys are way off. He will gross 386. Here is why. He has alot of extras that add up huge.
                      R              L
Main beams:   48             48
G1                16              14
G2                16               14
g3                 15              13
G4                18               19
G5                17                16
G6                0                 4
H1                 7                7
H2                6                 6
H3                6                 6
H4                6                 6
Total           155              153
Extras          18                 14
                   4                   4
Total           177               171
Inside spread          38

               177 + 171 + 38= 386  conservatively I think the backs are longer than that.  

386 +  Gross

Mark, he has what you call excesive flair on the main beams so it would be a judgement call on the measurement and would more than likely be between the swords to the g5s where it would get the spread credit.

This is funny cause I was redoing the measurements while you posted and I came up with almost the exact same as that on everything but a couple of the mass measurements and a little more than you on inside spread and came up with a final of
390! I about crapped!!!! That's one monster of a bull!!! You know though that on first glance I am very conservitive on score's!  :)

I was conservative on the back on him, I see I did cut the left g5 short. Hes going to gross right about 395 I think.  I may have went a little long on the front 4 but man waht a bull.
