    I don't think Cody has any pics of him. Sent him the video and pics and he made it seem like he didn't recognize him. He said do you think that's Peach? I was like...um yeah:poke:

    Unless we are missing something I see no way he approaches 200". Where do the inches come from? Even if you say he has a 110" frame (which is very rare)... where do the 90" of up tine and extras come from? He doesn't appear to have much for G4's and his total inches of extras looks to be less than 10".

    I'll say he has good mass but his main beams don't look particularly long despite his width. His brow tines are average. His right side is much stronger than his left. I'm guessing a 100" frame plus 60" of typical up tines plus 9" of NT extras. That gets me to 169".

    I'm not trying to say in the least that this isn't a phenomenal deer. He's probably the deer of a lifetime.... but 200" is way up there man.

    For that deer to get to 200" you have to be telling me that his right G2 is 15" and that he has a couple stickers we can't see in these photos.

    In the end who cares though. He is a giant and there isn't a bow hunter alive that wouldn't take him right now.

    yes. going to be a ton of deductions. I think deer should be scored as gross inches anyway.

    I would estimate him around 180" gross, but it's hard to tell since I can't get a good look at his right side. From what I can see, the right side is very strong and if both sides were equal to the right side, you might be getting closer to 200". The only way to know is to put him down and measure him up. Good luck, he's a great buck for sure.

    He is a straight stud nonetheless! Easier said then done but put the buck down and you'll get that answer. Best of luck!

    That is an awesome buck. It really is. But, it is not a 200 class buck. In my opinion, he is closer to 180 than 200.
