Never judge a buck width when he's walking away from you.

I don't see 190.  But bone knows 190 and he usually underscores when he says a score so I have to believe him.

Awesome buck shooter for sure in Washington :) I'm betting he  scores 175 fork need about 2 to 3 more inches to get him into mid 185 to 190 class

I'm withholding a lot of images, including of better ones of this fella for possible calendar stuff.  I promise he is bigger than 175 :chuckle:

6x6, I am not sure what buck is on the calendar this month, I will have to go look, but I don't think I have seen this guy before.  I did film at least two bucks today that I have seen before.  Crazy how close they were to the exact spot.

The first pic I would have said 170-175, the second pic got me into the 180's and if Bone says 190 I have to trust that, he has seen more of them than I have for sure.  I think in the field I have only seen a handful of 170-180" deer.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Even though everyone makes a mistake now and again, I'll still concede to not argue with Bone on the score, but his forks dont look deep enough for 190... but unlike Boneaddict... I have not actually TAGGED several 180-190 inch bucks... only drooled over others....

Regardless... what a beauty buck and nice captures bud...

I don't think so, but I think I did film him.  I need to look at him closer.  There were two big bucks together, one of them might have been him. I'll see if I can get enough eyeguard detail to sort it out.

I came up with 184 on my SWAG scoring.  Those main beams are crazy.

After looking at them a second time, I note how short his ears appear, and how wide the space between them is - that is a serious brute-size buck.  I have no doubt 190 is realistic.

185 is a solid conservative number.   I think he could push 190.   I haven't crunched any numbers.  Its all by "feel."

The funny thing was, I was trying to stalk closer to him.  Light was going bad.....   I fell on my face.  Save the camera!   I was all tangled up.  Bull in the china shop loud.  I might have even a couple swear words that aren't huntwa appropriate.    I pulled myself out of the pile of sagebrush, dignity not intact, and this guy was barreling towards me.  I think he thought I was another buck.   :chuckle:  Still laughing at myself.

Calendars arrived the other day.  All I can say is spectacular.  They are all great examples of Washington deer.  This calendar will keep me and my buddies pumped all year long.

Thanks for sharing.
