Awesome bull, but sure doesnt look 400+ like the post says.
How many 400” bulls have you seen?

Zero in person. Just in pics. Never laid hands on anything that tapes out past 360. Just saying it doesnt really look 400 to me, going off what i have to compare to. Not a big deal, and im not trashing the guys bull. But you cant tell me you jump right on my comment getting salty about it, with only 1 post in nearly 3 years, and youre not personally connected to this bull somehow.

Post by: teanawayslayer on September 10, 2019, 04:44:03 PM
I saw this bull for a moment in the back of the truck driving by I thought 380 looking at the 8 point side. I have also looked at many pictures. I don’t think some pictures do it justice. I have photo scored it from the first pic I saw and have a hard time getting over 370.pics can be deceiving but not that much. It is a very nice bull just saying no way 400”.
A friend who has laid hands on it and knows elk (he guides elk) says it’s bigger than the pictures make it look. I’ll trust him.

All I’m gonna say is if any of you guys knew the shooter, you’d know that he’d rather eat his tag then shoot something under 400”... because he’s killed multiple 400” bulls. Pictures can be deceiving but just remember, big bodies and big frames sometimes make long tines look shorter. I’m gonna go back into my silent hole now and keep chuckling over the comments.:tup:
Post by: huntandjeep on September 10, 2019, 04:52:58 PM
Yeah I get that , but if someone knows the score why do people have to doubt it , or say no way I only see 320" etc. I known of multiple record book anilmals that will never see the light of day , or their stories told ( which is sad ) because of Internet scorers .Beautiful bull congrats to the hunter .

I agree- it is sad. I think this is an excellent animal. I have zero skill at scoring though. I just saw an animal that was posted with a lot of #'s touting its virtues. That is always going to bring out challengers I guess. Maybe they could have posted it up with a challenge to guess the score? Maybe it would have less opposition? Idk, I guess I really don't care either way.
Congratulations to the shooter! :tup:
Great bull!

Mass: 29 a side for 58.
Mains: 55 for 110
Right side: g1-18, g2-18, g3-12, g4-20, g5-16, g6-6, for a total of 90
Left side: g1-18, g2-17, g3-12, g4-20, g5-17, g6-7, g7-1, for a total of 92.
110+58+92+90=350"
Now none of the pics show spread very well so let's just throw 38 at it and you get 388".
If I'm off 1 inch on each of the main tines that's 12". Probably has a better spread than 38, and wouldn't surprise me a bit if he had a bit more on the beams. So to say "no way that bull goes 400 is just a silly comment.
Now I could be an inch long on everything and he's 365 but I'm not gonna see "no way he goes this much or that much" :chuckle:
Congrats to the shooter and guide! Stud bull! :tup:

People will always *censored* on these animals and hunters. Not sure why but it always happens. People toss out numbers but will almost never break down how they came up with it. "No way that's 400", but then you ask to clarify and you get silence. So lets break it down and let's be CONSERVATIVE on the numbers and see what we get.
Mass: 29 a side for 58.

Karl this is the internet.
Quit with that logic.
That is EXACTLY the thought that went through my mind when I read Karl's post!
The second thought that I had was, if a dude has the coin to buy this tag, he's probably not a moron. He's made a few good decisions in his life. He clearly hired the right guide...don't you think its's possible that he had it scored by someone competent before he piped off some outlandish number that is not even close to accurate?
