I call BS on that score!  Who scored it?  I don't see it being any bigger than 320"


How about pic's of those past hunts?????


My Observatory bull from last year. 359 6/8. Yes, this was a decent hunt area not that long ago. (Like last year!)  :tup:

One picture, from one angle, and you score it at no bigger than 320? Good grief! Measured by official #488, at the Sportsman's show this year.


Nice!!!!

I was gonna say I have a 333" bull and even from that angle yours looks a little bigger!!!!

oops sorry not observatory, i just wanted to see what them experts know from pictures when it comes to judging score, you would be very surpised in this bulls score!

BUT... I grew up in the Wenas valley and spent alot of times in the mountains of the observatory and there are alot of big bulls up there, alot of times in late summer i see them just driving up the road. they are there and if you spend some time in the area it wont take long to find them.

I think you posted it before but I can't remember but right around 300" if I remember correctly? :dunno:  Either way he's big enough and I'd be damn proud to have him hanging on my wall. :tup:

Great Bull Mtndew! i would loved to have jammed him in the dirt. If I recall, you said you went into it with the attitude of "Go big or go home" You did the tag right. :tup:
