Put a tape on the bull tagged with the "insentive" tag

Here we go again.

Doesn't look like a 350" bull??  Mass puts it right up there. Thats a 350" bull for sure. What would a 350" bull look like then if this isn't it??

Dude , Take it easy man. You dont gain much inches on mass, its mainly tine length man, tine length. The thirds are basically  nonexistent and his beams look short. Now that extra is pretty long and probably makes up for some inches. But like I said the picture probably dont do him justice, I never said it wasnt a 350 bull just dont look like it. Oh , and if you want to see a 350 bull I can probably pull up some pictures somewhere.  If you get eastmans archery magazine look on the cover of that newest issue, that bull has the mass and way longer tines all the way around, its just over 350.

The difference between 350 and 370 is 1.5" per tine, and that ain't much in the grand scheme of elk racks.  Look at the 370 in BL's avatar and there's a world of difference between his and this bull.  350 is plausible on this bull, though because of the extra tines and the fact that Matt said he put the tape to it; I trust both and will call it 350.

Great Non typical Bull!

Looks like the same game cart I have.  1" square tube, using that for size comparison as it is close to the same distance from the lens, that bull has some NICE mass.  Way to go.  Hope I harvest one comparable on Tuesday up in the Taneum.

Dandy bull regardless of what any tape says. Congrats to the hunter. Mark

I didnt think he looked 350 either.. i came up with 348, but could be off a couple inches either way.. realisticly the bull is a 370 bull on his one side and a 320 bull on his other side.. so it throws you off.

nothing wrong with using the incentive tag on that bull, looks great, lots of good character too, I'd be satisfied.

[SHANE(WA)]

NOT 350. The one side is barely a 315 bull, character yes

NOT 350. The one side is barely a 315 bull, character yes

actually the one side was more like 320"

Nice looking bull. I'm sure a lot of guys will be out this weekend chasing them.

Lucky dude.  I can't see the pics here at work, I'll have to look tonight.

Risking sounding like a dork I have to ask, what the hell is the insentive tag?

Nice bull!  At least that is one the Indians won't get to shoot this year.  (oops did I just say that?)

An incentive tag is a lottery tag.  If you get your hunter's report in within 10 days of a kill or by January 10th??, you get put into a drawing.  I belive you get to hunt either deer or elk from Sept 1st through Dec 31st in any open unit with any weapon.

Dandy bull, would be hard to pass with any tag in your pocket I'd bet.  I just pray to the lord in heaven he did not use that motersickle in his pursuit of that regal creature. (said with tongue in cheek and a huge roll of the eyes.)
