I've only got one picture of him, but he looks pretty nice. I am interested in seeing what everybody thinks this bull will go, assuming he is a 6x6 frame.

He might be a little weak up front but it's definitely made up for up high. I'll say low 170's easy. What state?

The bull is in Utah. The thing I like most about it, the picture was taken on July 9th.... so he's still growing.

Put some measurements down and see what ya'll think.

g-1, g-2 and g-3 - 15 inches per
Royal - 25 inches (I think they are longer, but if I overshoot the first 3)
5th - 15 inches
Main Beams - 45" per (I believe they are longer)
Spread - 40" (I would hope its a little wider)
Mass Measurements - 7" Average (this should be a little low)
I think these are fairly conservative - puts him at 356"

What do ya'll think? Those inches look doable out of that rack?

Yeah that looks good. I would say 350 on low side and mid 360 on high side. Score aside he is a fantastic bull and I would never pass him up!

I think he is bigger than most of us are giving him credit.

Here is my numbered out guess:

G1 - 15
G2 - 15
G3 - 15
G4 - 24 inches
G5 - 14 inches
MB - 50"
Spread - 42" (can't tell, just a guess)
Total Mass per side - 33"

My new guess: 374

I did a scale on his g-4's in the first picture. Every thread or article I can find says from the base of their antler to the tip of their nost is 15"-16" long. I used the more conservative 15" for scale and drew a ruler on a note card. Using this same scale all the way out, it shows his G-4's to be 32". I don't think they will go that long, I think that's almost unfathomable. It showed his Main Beams to be 52", but it was hard to follow the curve of the beam. I think that might be pretty accurate, but maybe even a little short.

Bitterroot, I agree with you. Everytime I look at this bull he gets bigger and I think he's definitley a 370"+ bull. I had him guessed on the mass at 32" per side, but when the velvet goes, I bet it drops to 28" per side, maybe a little more. I will not be suprised if this bull scares 380". Only one way to find out, my dads got to put him on the ground. If he does, I will let everybody know what he does. Until then, keep sending your guesses.

I actually think he is a little short faced for a bull his age (6-8 years old probably). I still feel pretty good about my guess, if anything it is low. His MBs break 50 for sure. I would be shocked if he didn't break 30 a side on mass, without the velvet. Super bull. Only one thing to do ... put the tape on him while your dad is punching his tag.
