That is sure a beaut. Congrats!

Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: top pin1 on November 02, 2011, 07:07:54 AM: I'll say not over 300" More in the 280" or less range. Still a really nice elk and I'd be proud of that for my first one!

Great job!!
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: coachcw on November 02, 2011, 07:36:43 AM: nice bull 270-280
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: Rainier10 on November 02, 2011, 08:09:13 AM: That is a shooter for sure, I love the symetry. My guess is a little over 300.
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: Jason on November 02, 2011, 08:30:21 AM: Nice bull! Main beams are a little on the short side so I'd say 285"
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: HuntNFish on November 02, 2011, 09:15:51 AM: Thats a great bull for your first Elk ever. I would think 300. Congrats
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: 400out on November 02, 2011, 09:20:54 AM: Good enough! Look at the picture and your smile that's trophy enough ;) Great bull
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: vandeman17 on November 02, 2011, 09:23:05 AM: My guess is about 290 or so. I shot one my first elk in Montana last year that was a little smaller and it was in the 270's. No matter what, nice bull and well done.
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: blindpig on November 02, 2011, 09:29:51 AM: awesome first bull. 300ish
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: Bigtine96 on November 02, 2011, 09:37:17 AM: 280" short mains and not real long. But a awesome first bull

Nice bull!!
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: Bearhunter on November 02, 2011, 09:49:34 AM: Great Bull 307"
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: BOWHUNTER45 on November 02, 2011, 09:52:38 AM: yeah no sense worrying about score because thats a dang nice one ...good job !!! looks like he seriously bled out !!!
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: GoldTip on November 02, 2011, 10:03:22 AM: Well he is a true 7x7, so points wise he's bigger than any bull I've ever killed. Score wise I'm gonna put him in the high 280's, maybe 290ish.
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: saylean on November 02, 2011, 10:13:45 AM: Great bull! Im no antler measure'er....so I'd be hard pressed to guess.
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: elkaholic123 on November 02, 2011, 10:24:24 AM: 270 ish :twocents:
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: Machias on November 02, 2011, 10:35:14 AM: Very nice bull, congrats!!
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: Pathfinder101 on November 02, 2011, 11:18:05 AM: Looks like a mainframe 290 bull to me. The 7th points will add about 12-15 inches to that. I'll say he broke 300".
Now, go put a tape on him, so how close we are.... :tup:
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: jager on November 02, 2011, 11:24:05 AM: NE corner bull is a trophy regardless! Congrats!

Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: cem3434 on November 02, 2011, 12:15:57 PM: Nice bull........I would guess 320.
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: jmx369 on November 02, 2011, 12:35:33 PM: Just over 300. Great bull, congrats.
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: PlateauNDN on November 02, 2011, 01:55:16 PM: I would say he scores very well on my food scale! :chuckle:
Title: Re: My first elk, any idea what he will score ?
Post by: Dan-o on November 02, 2011, 05:39:15 PM: Having shot a 280 and a 284, I'm going to say no way is that bull under 300.

I'll stake my entire internet antler scoring reputation on it, and if I'm wrong I'll never guess again until next time.

It will be fun to hear what it tapes out at, but I'll stick with my original guess.
