What a great trophy. It is indeed a once in a lifetime bull. Congrats!

I just had it scored. 170 1/2  The scorer said it is 4th in the state. It also made B&C but im not sure where. I cant wait to get this mount back. Only six more months to wait.

Congratulations on a great hunt.  I would love to shoot one like that some day.

I am really surprised on the score because of the lack of a forked brow tine on the one side.  That normally really hammers a mooses score as it negates the other side as well but if its official then its official.   Photos are hard to judge obviously and no matter becasue  Its a really cool bull.  I love the width.

My honest assessment would have been about 145 for his score.    NOT being critical, just giving you what I saw.

Here is the breakdown of my opinion FROM A PHOTO

55 inch width
42 inch palm length (again, no fork on the one side, guessing about 21 inch lengthx2 (hardest to measure and judge by photo)***
14 inch mass (7inches x2) Doesn't appear to be super massive
18 inch palm width (guessing about 9 inch across back of palm x2)
16 for points (9x8)
 for a total of 145 give or take an inch Net Boone and Crockett.   SCI would be way different
