Holy crow!  That thing is a dandy!
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

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.
