I'm guessing 320. When you get him let me know how far off I am!
Good luck.

Yes, I think you should shoot it and let us all know.

I'd put him breaking the 335 mark for gross score. He is very good up front but not great. And tops are just good in my book. He might be closer to 330.

If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

A quick field judging tip I use is , look at the eye gaurds if there as long as his face good , then if his fours are noticibly longer than his g1's with decent g3's kill him . that is in less you have some killer tag that method typically would put a bull over 300 inless he's really missing something else.Some times when you are calling in a bull there;s not much time to judge him practice that and you'll get pretty good at making a quick judgement call, Good luck Coach.

i think thats a solid 340-350 bull.
i would have a hard time not shooting it regardless of what tag i had including the tag that you have.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

I have a watershed elk tag. So I guess he walks for the first 5 days.

Definately over 300, but probably not much over 350 if at all. Too much emphasis on score these days, a healthy wild animal taken on public land hunted ethically is a true trophy in my book. I really don't think anybody in their right mind would pass on anything 5x5 or better, but then I prefer modern and we all love spike only regs leaving the big ones for tribal use. Good luck getting him out!
