Only one way to settle it........ :hunter:  put that guy on the ground and put a tag on him and then a tape.  Oh, and then  :EAT:  :brew:
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

Guys...........I hate to be a party pooper on my first post...but that bull won't score over 305...his mains are to short, and he lacks mass between points 2&3  to go any highter....He is a fine bull though especially if you are gonna take him with a bow.

Obviousely you know nothing about bulls, sorry man but you suck at feild judging.

Anyway, lets see here, how bout some tine lengths:
G-1s 15ish
G-2s 14ish
G-3s 13ish
G-4s 16 @ 17ish
G-5s 14 @ 12
G-6 6
Mass bout 52
Insice about 40
Mains abot49 @ 50
so that makes.....340 wow, just what I thought.  ;)


Well lets see......since you know nothing about me...I guided professionaly in Montana for 4 years I have 3 6x6 bulls on my wall....and several rag horns and I guided many successful hunters...so yeah your right, I know NOTHING about bulls...there is no way those G3's are 13 inches....more like 9-10....DOnt get me wrong he is a nice bull and I would take him in a second, but he is not gonna go 340. Sorry

When I guided I had to be VERY good at judging bulls.....I give this guy a lower score, cause he is still in velvet and that adds to how big he looks....Just cause I am new here does not mean I am new to elk hunting bud...far from it

If you were my guide and told me that was a 305 Bull.  I would tell you I wanted a new guide.  :bash: "Team PSE" must not require good field judging skills :dunno:.  That bull is too wide and main beams too long too be 305 (among other things)  :twocents:

I am judging this based on what can only be called "fair to poor" photos based on lighting....

Do all of you guys bash people that oppose the going opinions this way?

And what does "team PSE" have to do with my opinion on what this bull scores?

All I said is that I don't think this Bull will go ver 305...315 at the most...

Sheeesh you guys..give me a break!

What do you think he scores?

Just guessing but I'd put him around 283" or so...  How close am i?

Also I would bet a dollar to a dime that the bull that started this thread is over 320"... and would bet a nickel he's 330" plus...

I will post his score once the experts post their guess....but your off by a bit.... The pic of this bull sucks....I shot this as a movie...and had to take a pic of a still frame...he is biggger racked than he looks, to be fair...he is actually a 6x7 with the 7th point on the right beam....but as a referrance his g4s are 15 3/16th inches long

Tough love  bowcop ;).  When your first post is what it was, your gonna get a little crap.

Michael J is pretty close with his guess. Maybe 290.  but that is one pic and you cant even see all of his points.  Hard to judge one blury photo without at least on more angle.

I'd say 270 to 280 still a good archery bull. I do think that first bull is in that 330 range though.put him down and settle this if you dont have the tag witch unit is he in ? Coach

Bowcop,

Atmost I'm guessing that bull goes 300", but he's severly lacking 3rds and mass...  I'll stick with mid 280's... ;)  But who knows I've never even officially scored a buck/bull I just go by what I see with my 'field judging' skills!

I'm saying 325-330 on the first bull and 305 on Bowcop's.
