It was 33 and change coach, 40 came from the additonal inches to reach 220.
I am due to get out. Probably why I am a bit surly. I am currently in the fall negotiation time with the Mrs. This year the union isn't budgeing.

I have ONE day tomorrow after coming off a double today to put together either an elk or a moose adventure, or stay home and get more surly. We'll see.
Good to hear about the taxidermist. I don't know his work at all. I am deadset that this score is false though. I hear alot of stories of Taxis boosting scores, much like guides do to make their clients happy I guess. This almost seems like one of those cases. I hope not.
Cedarpants, I don't tend to spread misinformation. It has nothing to do with manhood. Claiming an awsome buck is one thing. Claiming a 200+ state record, or a 220 inch buck for that matter is another. That is indeed an awesome buck with a bow. You'd think I might understand that wouldn't you. I'd be giddy as a little schoolgirl to see that buck and or to tag it. That doesn't make it the STATE RECORD.
Bigtine is correct, except I expect this one to shrink about 30 inches instead of 6.
