Ok, time to let the cat out of the bag.  I'll remind you that I don't know this guy and I'm not interesting in slagging him.  I was just curious whether his scoring claim was on the high side as it seemed to me.  Here is the only information he provided along with the picture.

he went 380 as far as mass the picture does not do him justice 22 1/2" 4's, 19 7/8" 3's, 12" bases, 52 1/2" mains

left whale tale 26 1/2" tip to tip, right 25 7/8" tip to tip


My guess would have been pretty much in line with what most of you are saying, maybe 330 class.  Do you stick with your original scoring guess? :dunno:

i think he's about 52" high...looks like he's measuring the 6's where he shouldn't be. i'm a guesser though.

380 seems far fetched to me, but possible

I.m not sure about 380 either, the rack didn't have that much mass, everything usually needs to pretty good to get 380's. Sliders bull has better mass, that's the big difference I see, however he is down and behind the animal, always makes them look bigger. If slider stood between the horns upright, they wouldn't look as big as these photos.... :dunno:    :twocents:

Both bull are extremely nice no matter what... :tup:

I agree. Someone is telling hunting stories after having several beers I think.

What is the history of past stories your friend has told you.....is he usually accurate or full of it?   :dunno:
