    It's hard to tell, does he have 8 points? If so, I'd have to guess he'll end up in the 110" range, otherwise he's a big 6 pointer. The brow tines are really hurting his score. By no means am I telling you to pass on him because he may be a big buck for you, and that's fine - always hunt according to your own goals. But if you pass on him this year year there's a chance he could blow up and be really big next year. You never know, maybe he will gain some good inches in this last month or so.

    EDIT: I'd like to give him more inches for the benefit of the doubt but it's really hard to with the brows being pretty short. Maybe it's just the pictures and maybe he's close to 120", but next year you won't have any questions :)

    He looks like an 8 point I shot last year, about 100-110. Nice looking deer, if he`s what you want, touch off the release!! Good luck!

    hard to tell by the pictures, but assuming it is a 4x4, I'd say maybe 110". However, he looks to be a nice buck, and only you can make the decision of whether or not to shoot him.

    I always say, if he makes your knees shake, then he is probably big enough.
