I have a 289 bull, and that bull beats it.   I'm guessing just north of 300.   One thing I know for sure is.......   It's a BEAUTY, and so cool that you got to do it with your Dad!     :tup:

OK so I finally picked up my mount and couldn't be happier.  He looks just like he did when i first saw him coming out of the trees.  glad I was able to preserve such a great memory.  And on the scoring thing we were all off about the same ammount in each direction I asked what he scored and he tells me he scored out at 300 dead on the nuts. anyways i don't really care about the score just like the work he did and happy i had the opportunity to harvest one bigger than a spike.  the picture doesn't show great detail it was a cell phone picture.
