Barely legal?

[treefarmer]

So if I read the rules correctly, as long as the eye guard is a inch long he’s legal?

Looks like the one hanging in Packwood. He's made it so far. Lots of interested hunters checking him out. Legal ??

[Goshawk]

Really? Why not use your tag on something you can be proud of?

[treefarmer]

Not in packwood.  Thinking of letting a young kid get his first bull if it’s legal He’d be super proud of it and I’d be proud of him so move along with your negativity tough guy

Can't eat the horns. I would be very proud to see those packages of steak in the freezer.

I’m pretty sure that’s legal, I think the rules changed a few years ago. The regs should tell you 

[Remnar]

Any legal elk in a general season is something to be proud of imop. Especially these days !

And yes I would say its legal .

Well the one in Packwood stays pretty much in town. No Shooting zone.
Hey at least the hunters driving thru can say they saw 20 elk that day.

[Bunny Thumper]

He’s legal! Shoot!!

3 points is 3 points. No matter where they are located as long as it is 3 points on one antler side. And at least 1 inch long. The rules are highlighted in blue this year with that change.

[Turdle]

Ya, not the old skool, if ya can hang a ring on it. Darn

[Bob33]

3-point Antler Restrictions: Legal bull elk must have at least 3 antler points on one side. Eye guards are antler points when they are at least one inch long.

Antler  Point-Elk:  A projection off any part of the antler measuring at least one (1) inch in length measured from the longest side. Eye guards are antler points if they are at least one inch long.
