What will this big boy score??
« on: April 07, 2009, 04:05:07 PM »
My friend got this muley in E.WA a few years ago. Any guesses on what it scores? Look how white the deer's face is. He shot and missed (buck fever) once before he connected at under 100 yards with his 7mm rem mag.
I felt like a one legged cat trying to bury a terd on a frozen pond!

need another angle at that one side, but by what I think I am seeing, quite well.  Nice deep forks.  Very symmetrical too, that is if what I am seeing is what is there at that angle.

Sorry Bone, that is the only pic I have. I strongly urged him to mount that buck, but no money going threw his devorce at the time. He put the antlers on a do it your self antler plaque.

beuatiful buck from the basin, I'm going to put him at 170+, not sure if he would hit 180 but he might come close.

Big enough to shoot!  Like said before, difficult to judge just one angle like that, I'd be pretty confident of a 160+ buck.
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

172"... nice forks, the curving of the mainbeams are a little decieving, the guards will help him out.  A solid 170" buck in my book but I'll stick with 172" gross.

Hey Michael!  I agree with you on this one!  :chuckle: :chuckle:

170ish gross is my guess.  Nice buck!

Nice buck!  Very symmetrical.  Id say 165 gross (hard to tell the width).
