150ish.  A very nice buck.

Id say those horns break 70 inches each pretty easily. Looking at the ears, the g2 and g3s are way above average. If that bucks under 160 I give up :dunno:

I’d go around 165 on that buck. Tine length is where they get the majority of their score and that bucks got it.

I would guess 163”-166”. And I would take him over a 190” muley every day of the week and twice on Sundays.

spread means nothing on whitetails they all get a spread credit and most are 16-18" inside. Even mass is just that, unless its unreal massive they are all the near the same. Tine length, main beams and total tines is where bucks separate. That buck looks to be high 150" to low 160"s

Wow if that is a 150s-160s buck then I have seen the god of whitetails. A few years back I was hanging out by the Methow River and saw a buck similar to that with slightly more mass, slightly longer tine length, and way more spread. We estimate the spread was at least 25 inches. Looked like Bambis dad but better.

I have seen some proverbial "25s" hit the ground........not a single one of them were over 21 inside, which is huge........there are some "25s" out there, I believe Ive seen one myself, but they are EXTREMELY uncommon.

I agree its very rare but my comparison was a 16" wide four point I had taken that same year. The "river beast" as I called him looks so much wider from behind that we thought it was at least 25 inches. We could have been wrong but man was it impressive. It was very uniform with six points on each side in addition to the brow tines.
