    I won't even pretend to know about scoring but from what I understand is it is quite possibly the new #1 SCI but I don't think it will be first in B+C due to differences in scoring method but should still be top10 if they scored it right. Big bloody elk regardless!

    You mentioned you enjoyed shed hunting for these elk over the years. Have you found any sheds of this bull ?? What do you guys figure for age on him .... Curious how long he took to get that big.

    I don't spend any time up Indian arm really outside this hunt and I venture up there a couple times for bear season. I mostly shed hunt the Squamish herd and we've only found 5 point sheds and smaller and dead heads. This year I might be more enticed into shed hunting out there though haha. Whoever gets the draw next year is gonna have a chance at another real stomper ifthat 7 point lives.

    It doesn't get any better! Plenty of reason to feel proud, not just a GREAT Bull, but a huge accomplishment.Great effort paid off!

    What are some mass measurements? Also what caliber rifle did you use? I know from experience that elk can really soak up the lead...just incredible how tough they are.
