Guys, this deer showed up in the middle of the day last year for one picture and that is all. I have seen this deer an unbelievable number of times before daylight driving in. The picture is all I got, and I wanted some various opinions. I have a decent idea from seeing him in the headlights at 5 yards a few times, but those are always half asleep, OH $&*^ there he is and there he goes scoring oppertunities. Give it your best shot, and yes this bad boy resides in Georgia. I know the angle sucks, but just throw a guess...we have some very good judges on this site, dating back to the HNI days...
I'm not a great scorer, but I'm guessing high 140's low 150's if both sides match. A stud, how old do you think he is?
Is that from one of those archery only counties? I'd say high 130's to low 140s, heck of a buck!! When you going to arrow that sucker?
I scored that guy at 156" with a 17" inside spread. If eye to nose-tip is 7", I've got this guy with 12" G2, 11" G3. I also took a 5" stab the brow tines. Seemed reasonable. Maybe I'm crazy over-scoring him, but that's a bigass buck.
Call me crazy but I am seeing a bigger score than most guys. A deers ears is roughly 7 inches in length, which leads me to guess that buck has 13 inch G2's and 12 inch G3's, 4 inch G4 and 7 inch brows. 36 inches of times plus 25 inch beams and 16 inches of mass... 77 inches a side put it at 154 inches, at a 18 inch spread and I am seeing 172"
Having just one side picture of a deer can be very deceiving. That buck could be anywhere from 130-175. get some cameras on scrapes in the area in a couple weeks and maybe he will show back up. Good luck.
If both sides match the one we can see well...I have this buck scoring around 160...very nice looking deer
I came up with 153 if he's a 5 point on both sides. Tough angle to judge thats for sure. Good luck with him.
don't have a score for you. I am no good at that. Although I am getting better. Just wanted to say that is a gorgeous picture of a stud deer.
A great Georga Buck michaelp, I would say in the mid to upper 150's. would sure like to see you drop the string on him.
Tough to get accurate. Upper 140's to low 150's if both sides match, but it looks to me that the left side might be a bit smaller than the right side we are looking at. Upper 130s minimum.
Yes he is, south Fulton county... I have been hunting a deer we dubbed the trailcam buck for the better part of 4 years and never even considered this guy. I thought this deer was un huntable to me (and maybe he is), because he is headed to a gated community everytime I see him before daylight. He just showed up, crusing no doubt. I still want the trailcam buck, and he has been inside 20 yards twice, so well see.
I think he is atleast 5.5. remember, this big boy is in Georgia and has a hell of a body, and it takes a deer awhile to get there eating pine needles... Wanted to add I suck at aging deer, after they hit 3.5 I no longer have a clue until we kill em and send the jawbone off.
That is a great looking buck no matter where he is from. Good luck catching up to him this year. He looks to be about 160 to me.
