Can't argue with Log's math or the deliciousness of elk meat!
I'll add a few of my own pics from some scouting trips and hunting trips over the years. As motivation and to fuel the discussion of should I or shouldn't I shoot him! Added scores for those that I could.
Here's my first bull ever. Happened to get him with my bow. Measured right at 300" (when I say right at, I guess I mean just shy...300 sounds so much better than 297 though)
This little fella woke me up from a nap one afternoon as he bedded down less than 100 yards away. Would you shoot him?
I really liked this elk. His points were all dinky, but he was a super wide 6 point. He was a hard worker too, never seen an elk chase and herd his cows so dutifully. This pic was from 600 yards out, I had him at 90 yards while hunting one evening but couldn't get it done. He would score low, but I like the look of him (not a great picture).
Here's a couple of MT (Bob Marshall) bulls. A buddy and my brother. (310" and 345"). That second one is silly big. My brother has a 365 bull that looks smaller than this one.
Spotted this guy feeding late one afternoon. 400 yards away. Never found him during the season. And yes those are 7th's!!
One more of my bull from last year. Was a rifle bull. 310"
Sorry if pics are of questionable quality. I'm not much of a photographer.
