What's the score on this buck?

b

This was on my brother in law camera needless to say he is very happy!

 

My guess would be upper 160`s 170`s Ide fall out of the tree if that was anywhere near my stand!

 

150 tops.

150s.

 

High 140s

 

I was thinking maybe 130's.

 

mid to upper 140s

 

I'am at 135-140

 

150.

Trailman, if you are hunting him this fall, good luck!

 

I would say 133" maybe 135" at the most. It is a beautiful buck but you need tall tines and mass to get BIG as an 8.

 

That what I was thinking since he didn't have much time length would hurt the score. Never the less though still a good deer! Best I've seen in these parts in a long time

 

that spread....that spread. I'd say 146. As already mentioned; 8s gotta have serious tine height to get over 150.

 

I respectfully disagree with anything lower than 150's. It's not easy to hit the 150 mark for an 8 point but that one does it easily.


RG1 7"
RG2 10"
RG3 7" (rounded up)
RMB 28"
RC1 6
RC2 5
RC3 5
RC4 4

LG1 8"
LG2 8"
LG3 8
LMB 27"
LC1 6
LC2 5
LC3 5
LC4 4
ISPC 22"
Total 160

Obviously the measurements are estimated but I feel they are close enough to keep him safely in the 150's. No way in heck does he not make it past 140 even if my estimates are off a bit by the each.

 

That is a close up of the deer so everything is going to look bigger. Plus he is going to lose A LOT of mass when the velvet comes off. There is no way he has one 6" mass measurement.

 

Its big

 

I respectfully disagree, we'll have to agree to disagree and if he's taken then one of us can chest beat I guess. 6" mass measurement isn't all that extraordinary at the first point of measure. Even so the score came out 160...like I said there's a hell of a lot of room to play with. With his ears out, close up has basically nothing to do with it.

 

I am with RAXX, that is one heck of a buck for sure!! I think he is in the upper 130s pushing 140. He needs more mass and better tine length to be hitting 150s as a 8pt.

 

Wow...okay. Hope he hits the ground and we get an official score because one side or the other of this is sadly mistaken.
I have an officially scored 148 5/8 buck on the wall here in front of me and the one posted is bigger without a doubt...but whatever.

 

Around 140" tops. I have seen a 152" 8 point that my uncle shot and it has a lot more mass and tine length. Hell of a buck regardless

 

He is close to the camera and velvet makes him look like he has more mass. I do have one of him further from the camera and he didn't shrink!
