Post by: couesbitten on December 11, 2008, 07:40:37 PM: Sounds like WASHBCBOOK is jealous. He's probably never shot anything big enough to make the WA record book.

Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: bucklucky on December 11, 2008, 07:49:15 PM: Cool looking bull, too bad he didnt have the fronts to match the backs, Right around 345 gross, maybee pushin 350??
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: bullcanyon on December 11, 2008, 07:54:22 PM: Grossing in the lower 340s. Of course that is from afar. Congrats to her. That is pretty cool she shot such a nice bull. I bet she was jacked up. Hopefully you've been lucky enough to get one that big. Or you're probably catching hell.

I saw the post before you removed it - thanks. I'd suggest a 2-strike policy for dickwads like the one that posted that !@#$%^ - must be tough for him to get in high fence hunts between his GQ shoots, eh?

Post by: couesbitten on December 11, 2008, 11:07:36 PM: Thanks for removing the offending post jackelope.
During my hasty and immediate response to WASHBCBOOK's poor taste post, I forgot to congratulate bone head's girlfriend on a fantastic bull. Really to bad that his fronts were not as great as his back end, but a great bull anyway. What unit were you hunting, was it public or private, and can I draw it with my 8 Oregon points?
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: bone head on December 11, 2008, 11:27:04 PM: it was on some leased ground that i patroll during hunting season but the unit only takes maybe 2 to 3 points to draw, she had 3 when she drew it. i shot a toad up there this year and ill post pics of it soon. the taxidermist told me it scored around 312???? but people are telling me different. it was with a bow though. the friend that shot the double drop tine comes down and hunts with me every year and this is why he keeps comeing back. heres a pic, what do you think he'd go???? i'd of had him mounted but no room with her bull mounted and one other of mine, but its getting europeand

Post by: Turkeyman on December 12, 2008, 12:07:48 AM: 325, 330
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: couesbitten on December 12, 2008, 08:41:12 AM: I'm gonna say around 340. That's a great looking bull, looks real balanced, appears to have decent tine length all around. Based on that pic, I would have got a shoulder mount done.
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: bucklucky on December 12, 2008, 08:59:52 AM: I'd say solid 340 on your bull. I cant believe 312 on you girlfreinds though. When I first looked at it I thought it would have been a good 365-370 bull if it had normal eyeguards. I took off about 5-6 inches per eyeguard and came up with 345+. Pics can be decieving though. Better have it scored, that a P@Y bull!
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: skybusterbo on December 12, 2008, 09:01:19 AM: Hers-330,335. Yours-320,325.Great bull's!!!!!! :drool:Looks like you need to add on or get a bigger house. :chuckle:
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: GoldTip on December 12, 2008, 09:11:59 AM: I would have guessed into the 330's with your GF's bulls, and yours should run into the 340's. However, your bull may be decieving with just that side shot and may score slightly better than I am guessing
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: stlhdr1 on December 12, 2008, 10:11:42 AM: 320-325...

Keith :)
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: BLUEBULLS on December 12, 2008, 11:33:04 AM: I was thinking the first bull was right at 350'' gross and the second, right around 345" but real hard to tell by the picture.

Both bulls are awesome!
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: bowsandhose on December 12, 2008, 12:08:06 PM: both bulls are very nice congrats to you both

:chuckle: hard to feel bad for you, to many big bulls in the house :chuckle:
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: groundhog on December 12, 2008, 12:14:40 PM: Congrats on to fine bulls! I think yours is quite a bit bigger than your girl friends. Yours has better first and seconds and it is equal to or better on the G-4s and it has better G-5s. It also has longer main beams by at least 12 inches on both sides and it is much heavier. I would guesstimate hers at 315 to 320 and yours at 345 to 350. Yours could easily be 355 or better depending on width. Pictures can be deceiving you should score it and let us know.

Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: bucklucky on December 12, 2008, 02:57:24 PM: I'll up my guess on my score for your bull, 350 gross pushing 355 but not quite :)
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: Turkeyman on December 12, 2008, 05:53:43 PM: bucklucky is right on.
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: Skyvalhunter on December 15, 2008, 08:42:07 PM: 330 I guess
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: Elkstuffer on December 16, 2008, 04:40:58 PM: I was guessing her bull at about 320ish. Yours should go higher in the 345 range. Both nice bulls.
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: kingsalmonkllr77 on December 22, 2008, 08:25:34 PM: That is a nice bull and its way cool your girlfriend likes to hunt. Not sure on what it scores but I have never went after elk so it's way bigger than the one that I never killed, nice job...
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: Slider on December 22, 2008, 08:57:47 PM: That a neat Bull!!! I'd say 335-340
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: WVT on December 23, 2008, 07:06:47 AM: end the suspense, what's the score of these two bulls?? need a tape :bash:
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: dbllunger on December 23, 2008, 04:18:40 PM: Don't need a official scorer to measure the bull. Print the sheet off line and score it yourself. What is it?
Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: 300winmag on December 23, 2008, 07:08:23 PM: great bulls both of them.Dont have any like that here on the wa coast.

Title: Re: what do you think it would score
Post by: bow4elk on December 30, 2008, 07:26:25 PM: Solid 350" bull. My partner from CO killed a 352" bull in NM with 52" mains. This bull will top 350 net, just my guess.
