even freezing at 6:44 its tough to tell if that point is in front or behind the split
No ground judging for me so I say Not
Never say whoa in the middle of a mud hole
i love antler restrictions... otherwise unless you had a draw you would not have been moose hunting..
Having hunted these rules, i would take the 2/3/10 rule over LEH 7 days a week.
I would let this bull walk as I am not sure about left antler. As I am a look at brows first, then, if needed, try to count the points. On that bull, I cannot be sure so I would let it walk. Who is that hard up to kill a moose that they would shoot that bull?? Lots more in the bush that will make it easier to count and shoot.
I had a big bull in this year, 50+, that I called into 12 m in the thick stuff and he would have been an easy 12x13, but being a timber bull, he had worn off the top points of his top, so he came up as 9x9 with two on each brow. He might have been a 10pt on one side, but why chance it. Lots of moose around!

Not a shooter to me. Looks like 2 on the brow and not a 10...so nope
Looking at the brow tines on the left antler I see a clear three points separate from the main palm. He's legal I'd put him in freezer.
You can't call that a tripalm until you put a tape on it. That is way to close to call. That third point could fall on either side. If your comfortable taking him you have more balls than I do haha.
Tripalm Bull - means a bull moose
having at least one antler with a brow palm
bearing three or more points (tines). The brow
palm is separated from the main palm by the
deepest antler bay. The deepest bay is the bay
whose vertex (deepest location) is the shortest
distance from the antler base, when measured
along the surface of the antler

Imo, this bull doesn’t have the clear brow tine separation needed to be legal. I’m surprised at the ones who say they’d shoot it. Good luck facing a CO; again that’s my opinion.
If you can pack it in, You can pack it out !!!
