Stan, congratulations to all of you guys on taking another fantastic bull.
For those who doubt the score, I have a little John McClendon story. Back around 2000, I drew a rifle tag in unit 9 and booked a hunt with McClendon and Sons. In fact, Stan was in that camp, guiding another hunter. There was a fellow who had taken some nice bulls, and John was guiding this fellow himself. At mid-day around the third day, John comes back in to camp and tells this fellow that he's found the bull the guy is going to shoot. When the guy asks him about it, John tells him it's a 5x5. The fellow didn't want to shoot the bull as he wanted something bigger, until John told him the bull would score (and I might be wrong on the exact score as it was 8 years ago) 327 as a 5x5. John then produced a notepad with all the measurements on it. I asked him how he knew the bull had those measurements and he replied that he knew because he'd snuck withing 30 yards of the bull for over a half hour. Well, they killed that bull later in the day and John was right on the score, to within an inch.
A day or two later, another hunter (guided by Richie Hogan) killed a nice bull off the Coconino Rim. When they got him back to camp, everyone was guessing what he'd score. All the hunters and guides were guessing, and guesses ranged from around 320 clear up to 350. John pulled into camp and came over to look at the bull. When asked how big he thought it was, he said "336". After we all sat around and measured the bull, John was again the one who was spot on with his estimate of the size. I was amazed that anyone could look at a bull and guess that closely and do it twice.
I know I wouldn't be second guessing how big he says a bull is. This bull has unreal tine length, and that's where most of a bulls score comes from. I believe them.
