    Taking into account deer that I have seen from Texas, judging from the smallest I would consider mature (100") to the biggest fair chase whitetail from Texas,I would rate that deer a two solely on antler size.

    So would a smaller buck with a bigger body rate differently?

    At first I was just considering antler size. So no that buck would still rate low. But after factoring body size, most likely I would rate him the same as this buck. Smaller rack, bigger body kinda evens out the scales.

    So what are you going to call your new ranking system?


    Interesting.

    Probably a 3.2 I would have gone 3.3 but his eyes are kind of small.
