Deer scoring
« on: February 12, 2009, 02:36:33 PM »
Some other threads contained photos of bucks with scores that were questionable to some folks.  Not trying to stir the pot here, just thought I'd post some live buck photos for everyone to practice their scoring on.  I've included three shots of the buck so you'll have more to go on than a single, head on photo.







Let's see some numbers.  How wide, gross score, net score?

I would tend to agree with Bone more on this one so far.

He's already been shot and scored, I just thought it would be interesting to let everyone score a buck "on the hoof" and then give the correct numbers.  No better way to train your eye IMHO.  I'll post the true scores in a couple days.

He's already been shot and scored,

First guess was 188" gross...  That width REALLY helps him out though I think I'll say 191" gross...

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
