    Very nice.
    I'm guessing on the score I'm no expert.
    160" range?
    Let someone score it and let us know.

    Awesome Awesome Deer!!!

    Hope you stick around and contribute after all the "atta boys" and pats on the back, but I have my doubts

    Way to go man! What a great buck, love all of that mass and character! I tell you what, you will never forget that feeling of killing your first big buck. You're hooked now!

    I'm still waiting on my biggin' and I've been hunting for about 8 years now myself. I've always been somewhat into it because my dad is a huge bowhunters but I finally started hitting it hard at about 15yrs old. Talk about one heck of a first buck man! That's a 160 class deer all day long! I've set my goal to beat my dads biggest buck and it may take me a lifetime but I'll get it done eventually! Just gotta keep that faith and hunt hard! Here's the pic of my dad and his 172 5/8 giant back in 1994![​IMG]
