I think most guys do give the gross score.  My Bull from 2 years ago would be a good example  gross @ 339  net @ 320.
But the score really means nothing, just have Bucklucky mount it and enjoy.

Damn nice bull....  Private property??? Noticed the fence in the back.... :dunno:
yes the unit was Peola, mostly private in the blue mountains foothills.  Not a high fence hunt, or a slam dunk.  Ask 400out about it. LOL.

Boy everyboy has an opinion on this one! 
I have to agree with the notion most hunters don't know how to score antlers.  I know I didn't and when I shot my 300 class bull last year.  I had to measure it 5 different times when i arrived home only to get it up to a wopping 255 :(.  Don't get me wrong...Great bull, great hunting experience, fabulous meat...I just didn't have any idea what kind of bull you must have to score over 300 :dunno:.  I do now and there are very few of them out there.  Thanks for the post! :tup:

I appreciate that!  ;)  Under normal circumstances I could care less if someone misspells every other word without making a minimal effort to correct it (spell check button). But to do that while blasting hunters who make themselves look stupid on this site? That was just a little too hypocritical for me.

Personally I dont care what someone thinks their animal scores, Im just glad we were able to share a little bit of their experience.  There are areas on this site to get testy on (off topics politics & news), but getting on guys for being excited about a kill isn't one of them.  I know we all have things that get our blood boiling, but a guy calling a 260" bull a 300" bull isn't one of them for me.

and as to have to pay to have it entered 35 40  bucks most guys drink that in beer in a week on tackle to fish one afternoon idont know maybe i a wrong

sorry I am not big on measuring things ;) ........entering contests or bragging  :dunno:  so truth is I dont care what they score I like big bulls and I like seeing people post success pictures...the numbers really dont matter much

with people like you getting all hell bent I am not so sure I would share pics openly here....and I will never spend the money to enter something in the "record" books even if it "could" go there...who cares... :dunno:

not that I will ever kill anything anyway.....just really glad I can live vicariously through some of the really good people on here....

50cal..... thats a great lookin bull great photo taken of the bull great mass to him so its probably more decieving than anything but without seeing that bull in person i cant really give you an honest guess with a quartering view i have nothing to compare with in the photo as to length he has a great frame and mass but without a couple more pics im not going to give you my opinion of score but congradulations its a beautiful bull
The reason I posted this Elk pic is because many "experts" have guessed anywhere from 290 to 340. When I tell them it scores 316" a few have called B.S & still don't believe me until I show them the score sheet. Some guys don't ever want to admit their wrong but the look on their face when proven wrong is priceless. :chuckle: By the way it cost $10.00 to score your rack & a extra $20.00 to enter the Wa record book if thats your thing.

That record book is not official and a sham
