Holy crow!  That thing is a dandy!

I'd say at least 55, maybe even as high as 58 or 60.  See how those daggers sweep out.  Its really hard from a perspective in a picture.  You can do alot of manipulation by how you take a picture as you have seen on here, but that is seriously a nice bull.

I'm going to say 52-55.  I'm not sure it's as wide as it looks in the photo.  Hard to tell though.

 Hard to believe there are bulls in this state that are 25"+ bigger than that thing, I'm thinking 55" on the width.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Exactly.   I have a 180 moose frm AK and if I see one 20 inches bigger than it in the state, I might just die right there.
