280 to 300.  There are bigger, but a lot are smaller.

260 to 270" not enough mass or length to get it up any higher. A very nice bull though!!

I'd rather have a bow in my hand then this keyboard!

270ish, nice bull.
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.

Thanks everyone, I came up with 290 5/8ths sounds like I was in the ball park I did it on Boone and Crokette sight where you input all that stuff whacker, I figured i may had done something wrong, but looks like I did it right or close enough for us. Dad is tickled pink his first branched antlered bull

Congrats!   I always go with my gut rather than trying to piece together a score from photos.  I'd say that bull is a 255-260ish class bull.  Looks like a gorgeous rack regardless of score.  Short main beams but good overall proportions.   Love the dark color and polished tines.

:yeah:  Nice bull... wall mount?

Yuppers dad is getting a full shoulder mount from a local taxidermist. He is stoked. Yeah there was 1/2 inch difference in the length of the mainbeams longest is 41inches, and spread was 36inchs, and 34 1/2 at the tips. Tines ranged between 11 and 16 inches respectively it is really symetrical. Thanks everyone for the kind words!!
