If they could see the cigarette hanging off his lower lip ...
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

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.

Slowly but surely :chuckle:
I can't wait, I just ordered one for myself and three others for my hunting buddies as Xmas gifts.
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.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

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

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.
