A friend of mine sent me this. His boy (son of his) is friends with the fella pictured here. If I remember, this guy was taken out of Colorado. Got him with a Bow. Any idea on what this one would score? I'll tell ya, he's a good one ...

390" B&C

Beautiful bull. Pics make it hard. Looks to be missing mass. My guess is closer to 370”

If the off side is equal I'd put him around 360

I would give it 350 because of tine length , but it is not real heavy. Hard to guesstimate, he is kneeling about 6 ft behind it so I believe it aint as big as this picture makes it look.

370 was my initial guess as well. The hunter is seated as far back as he can be, naturally, messing with the depth perception. Still, heck of a bull and sincere congratulations to the hunter. Great shot.

This is the oldest trick in the Book! Don't misunderstand me here. Great bull, and great shot as I posted earlier.

Look at how small the guy looks, behind the Bull and compared to his Bow! Tough to score with out seeing the front view of the picture. Good fourths and fifths on the tines, and just okay thirds. Fronts aren't bad! 315-345, is my guess!!!

Show more pics.

I've got an officially scored 320 bull and this one beats it by 36-40" on tine length alone easily, mine gets killed on time length. This im guessing 370 because of mass better mass i would say 380- possible 390.
My buddy has a 383" officially scored bull and this thing is close, its true pics can be deceiving but I'm looking at Beam and tine length also great tops. Can't tell spread

Great elk. Would like to see a front pic. Sort of spindly, although great length. 350 or so.

I'm gonna give this Bull 140" of tine and beam length per side, avg mass is 3o" on a 380 bull per side and 40 inside spread.
So 140+ 20" mass = 160x2 = 320 + 40 spread = 360.
I think that's a little conservative I'm still sticking with my 370.
Brows and 3rd - 16". Sword-22". 5th- 12" and main beam 56"
1" better on each point would easily get 370"
