The top bull I would put at
53” main beams
17” g1s
17” g2s
13” g3s
18”g4s
15” g5s
28” mass
40” spread
~368” @strousek what did you guys figure?

I think you are right there with our assumptions on him. We guessed the bottom bull in the 330s possibly 340 and the top bull to be pushing the 370" mark. They are public land OTC in Colorado which makes him even more impressive in my book.

This first bull went 360. He alluded me during hunting season and was later harvested by another. I have a pic holding his headgear, he had great mass.




This second bull is one my wife took that went 308. He basically had a 320 side and a 300 side. We really only focused on the bigger side.




A friend took this bull. He did not make 300, it went in the 280-290 range. We were on the last day, but he ended up being much bigger than I thought he was going to be.




Will follow up the previous bull with this one. We thought we had a 320 type bull from the pics and video my friend got. We never scored him, but I'm confident he is under 300.




I don't remember what this bull scored. He certainly would have been over 300 with a matching side. As is, he still may have been over.

Judging bulls that flirt with the 300 mark can be tuff. You can usually judge tine length from bull to bull, but beams play a big part in making or breaking the mark IMO.

All beautiful bulls, nice job to all!

I’d be sure to follow “jayscottoutdoors” on IG and he posts a ton of live and spotter views and comes back and tells you the score a few days later. Was very helpful on my tag last year.

Now for the pics.

Bull #1:

I estimated him right around 360”. This on 60x and then cropped and zoomed digitally from a video at one mile.

Bull #2:

I estimated him mid 340’s with a quick glance. This is at 554 yards through some grass so he wouldn’t see the lens. He ended up going 356 6/8. Mass hides length!!! He had 55” beams, but tiny 3rds.

Don’t have any spotter pics of the others. Enjoy the hunt!

Not the best photos but any guesses on this bull? He got shot 23 miles from here the following week so I know what he scores

Praying to the elk gods that I see one of these come late October on my first ever hunt. Is there a rain dance I need to do to see these bad boys? Sacrifices? Sell my soul?

Is 375 a guess or did you put a tape on him?

 

[Dos Perros]

If he had grown to his potential then he would have been 314-5/8".

No disrespect, what does this mean?

A local taxi picked up the sheds, I’ve never actually put my hands on him was just told. He was bigger the next year, defiantly a giant bull.

My guesstimate is 390”. Beast

He scored 304-4/8" gross and 294-3/8 net. He had 10-1/8" worth of deductions across his 12 tines.

So what I mean by "growing to his potential" is had he grown those 10-1/8" worth of deductions to his 304-4/8" 6x6 frame he would have been a perfectly symmetrical 314-5/8". A REVERSE NET if you will.
