What is the history of past stories your friend has told you.....is he usually accurate or full of it?   :dunno:
I've never met the guy.  I found the pic and information on a different forum.  The topic title was "Look at my bull".  Now I realize the bull had a double meaning. ;)

The bull is much better on one side than the other. But with very generous guesses on the tine length the best I can come up with on the larger side is around 164-168 the smaller side appears to be 8 to 10 inches smaller the third is at least 5 inches shorter on the short side. so if you say 166+156+42 inch spread you get 364. I think he took the larger measurement for each tine and doubled it and then used the base as the first scoring mass measurment to get to 380. I would like to have him score my bulls. :) :)

I just found this thread today, but I would have said 340s at the most.  Maybe pushed to 350 if that guy is huge.  It's a great bull though.
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
