I'd be more impressed if this buck was taken over bait.  :chuckle:

I had him about 180-185.  He lacks long tines for a 200 inch deer.   Those are my own personal thoughts and answering the ? what does he lack.  IMO      That being said, BUCK OF A LIFETIME.   Drooling over such a trophy, congrats to the hunter.  What an animal!

Beautiful animal.  I have never seen such "flat paddles" (if that is the right word) for the tines/eye guard/whatever.

That deer is amazing! I can't wait for all the " official internet picture scorer's" to be proven wrong. How many times do we have to learn you can't score a buck from a picture?

Awesome for the guy who shot that stud!

Sometimes its really not rocket science. 
A 150 whitetail is a great buck.  A 160 is a giant, a 180 is a gagger, and 200 well....
Just keeping it real.

I agree, and will also add that a 140" whitetail is a fantastic whitetail as well.

The left side of that buck has 200 written all over it.  I don't know what you mean by short tines.  The right side, I assumed you probably couldn't see it all in the picture. 

Looking at the right side, it is definitely not a 200 inch deer, but still huge.

Good story, like i said in an earlier post. Maybe 190. Great buck. If youve seen enough good bucks its not hard to give a good estimate on score if its a decent picture. I cant wait for people to finally realize what it takes to make a 200" buck.
What would life be without the thrill of the hunt?

Here is a 200 inch net buck for your comparison pleasure
If we were supposed to be vegetarian God would have made broccoli more fun to shoot!
"HOYT" why would you even consider shooting something else?
