If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

It was at a local taxidermist it had a 24 inside and 27 outside but he said it only scored 160 because the points were short. Anyway it looks impresive.

Someone is measuring wrong  :dunno: or the pics are very deceiving I would have said 23" wide but at 27 it still looks like a 130-135 buck to me.
