Amazingly cool bull, but there is no way to even guess a score based on that pic. That's the type of bull that the score really doesn't matter. The chances of shooting a double drop tine bull would make up for any score that it may have. B

If that is a real photo then I say he scores, "enough!"

It's easier to measure when they're dead though so kill him

He'd score 250 grains at high velocity if he came near me.

Looks 360+ to me.  Maybe bigger, hard to tell from those pics.  Shooter any time, any state, any unit for me... :tup:

My guess is 360-370 gross. I could be way off. Hard to decide when factoring in those corkscrews. He's awesome.

Nice bull, not real wide but appears to have nice royals, my guess 335ish

Real hard to say, I'm thinking with all the extras somewhere between 340 and 350. But with double cork drops he could be a spike for all I care he's awesome.

Your friend needs to quit following that bull around and put him on the wall and in the freezer!  :tup:

Assuming that's even possible I mean...

Really nice bull. Doesn't look super heavy, but a great looking bull and those drop tines are something special for sure. I'd tag him in a half a heartbeat if I had a chance!

Wow what a shame to have such a great bull to die in the hands of a poacher.  We need some serious reward money for the recovery of this magnificent bull to be on display somewhere for everyone to enjoy.  Just wrong that it is in some poachers trophy cave.

Not sure of the score but would shoot the arrow or send the bullet with no hesitation.
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.
