I posted this on the Colorado forum and then realized more people might enjoy it here. These are from an OTC unit in Colorado. I thought it might be fun for people to guess the score. Obviously we don't know the spread, but we have measured the main beams, circumference, and points so we have a pretty good idea of a gross score. Guesses anyone?

360 for me but it would not surprise me if they would go higher.

Do you take the first mass measurement between the burr and the first point or between the first and second point?
Hint: it's different than with deer:)

The first mass measurement is taken between the first and second points.

The picture can be deceiving because of closeness but it appears to be a 370 class bull, nice find!

The G2's and G3's are awesome on that bull. Main beam looks long as well. Maybe its because the pic is close, but that bull looks huge. Wouldnt surprise me if that thing is over 380.

Great 3rds.
Would you mind giving us a north/south part of the state or nearest large city? If you don't want to announce it and want to PM me, that'd be cool. Mostly interested just due to the genetics of CO.

There is no illusion from the picture guys. Those antlers are from a very large bull. We have him scoring in the high 370s + or - 5 for spread.

You said an OTC unit, was it private or public land?
