I like him.  Is he going to get 3 mass measurements above the prong?

Bigshooter: For antelope on the Boone and Crockett score sheet, it says if the second mass measurement falls in the prong then you move it down to just below where the prong starts to protrude. On my buck the first quarter mark or the second mass measurement falls into the middle of the prong. So this buck has two below and two above the prong.
And you may already know the rule and we're just asking where it landed. I was mainly clarifying for guys who may not know the rules. A buck would have to fork very, very low not to fall in the prong.

Thanks for the reply.  I know the rule just wanted to know where the 2nd mass measurement would be with such a low prong.

Yes for his size he has a very low prong. It gives him a cool look :yike: The top of his prong is just under 5 inches from his bases. His second mass mark is at 4. I had to refresh my self on the rules after seeing him while scouting.

He's a way better buck than I thought going by those spotting scope pictures. Stud of a buck. What were his measurements on his diggers? They are impressive

Give us a score on him.  With some measurements.  I really like him but he looks like he would have been very difficult to judge while he was alive.

Instead of posting a bunch of numbers I went ahead and went to the Boone and Crockett site just filled in his measurements and took a pic for you. It will make it clearer on there sheet.

As far as scoring him from the spotting scope pics: I took probable 200 of him with a cell phone. And watched him twice for probable an hour each time.  Then when I go to post them on this site from an ipad it's hard to tell which ones are the best from a small pic. When you have them up on a computer it's easier. His head is a bad angle in all three pics for judging a score. I noticed this after reading you guys posts. When  I posted them I just thought it would be cool to have pics up then have harvest the same animal.
 
I will post the score sheet now, then I will go thru the pics and get a couple in the spotting scope that you could get a better field judge from. I was very close on my judging.

Thanks for posting.  From all the pics you posted I thought he was around 82 - 83.  But those low prongs kept making me second guess myself.  He would still be a shooter to me even if he scored 78.
