2016 Idaho bull
« on: March 29, 2018, 09:34:51 PM »
Got my bull back from the taxi yesterday. Couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. Just for fun anyone have an idea on a score?

I do believe I have this bull on camera.  I'll have to dig into my trailcam file sometime here, and check.

I'm told there's a bigger bull in that same area, at least as of last October.  I talked to a group that had hunted this bull the archery season in 16.

When I scored it myself before dropping it off at the taxidermist I rough scored it around 286 I think.  I've got no experience scoring so it's truly a rough score.  No matter what it scores, I'm 100% happy with it so that's really all I care about. It was more out of curiosity but fun to see others guesses.

If it is the same bull, then it's one of many in that area.

Thanks to everyone. Out of state hunting has been pretty good to our group to say the least. Can’t wait for this year!
