Any guess on this guy?

I'm excited to get him official scored tomorrow. He is a diy, public land bull from an area that doesn't produce a lot of good bulls. I know it's hard to tell by pictures, but still fun to guess.

For fun lets do a gross and net, as you may notice he is a 7x7, but they are in the wrong order on one side. So he can probably go non-typical.
 
A few of those tines are pretty narrow and long. I would guess he would gross in the 360" range. Not going to do very well net as a typical for sure. Depending on how he was scored you would start out with about 20" of deductions and it would go downhill from there. Probably looking at 330" or so as a net typical.

Nice looking bull though and bigger than anything I've ever killed.
 
LAST EDITED ON Feb-11-11 AT 11:22AM (MST)[p]Nice bull! I would guess him as possibly grossing in the 340s, but the lack of symetry is going to knock better than 20" off the net score. That 4th on the right side is sure a long, slender tine!
 
I would say 340 to 345 but I am not good at scoring


I'll tell you who it was . . . it was that D@MN Sasquatch!
 
I'm thinking about 345ish. Doesn't really matter, more than big enough is what I'd say if he were in front of me.
 
It's not that I care, it just fun to guess. Also when people ask I can tell them exactly what is scores. Instead of I scored it at _____ and they don't believe me. It will be officially scored. I have one on the wall now that this guy will fit in between!!! I was a lucky kid so I was told, I personally think it ruined me, shooting one that big so long ago...
 
The most special part of this elk is it was the first time my daughter was with me for the whole experience!!! This is a hunt I will always cherish...

Awesome DIY public land bull. Ide guess 357, just a guess. Its cool seeing girls out in the field, my Girlfriend wants to go, but I dont think she would even attempt getting close to a dead animal! haha
 
Well I finally got the bull scored by an official B&C scorer last week and he scored 362 4/8 gross and 350 4/8 net non typical... He wants to score my other bull next week... I'm curious to see what he scores...
 
I didn't guess yet.... 340" LOL
He's better than I thought.
Congratulaions on a sweet bull and the opportunity to hunt with your daughter. I have lots of fun when I hunt with mine!
