In a heartbeat

Probably any Washington tag I can think of, this one would get a notch.   There has always been something about this buck.

His ears are to small, makes his rack look freakishly perfect.

I think my mind would saying Holy $hit!
While my body would be taking the shot. Then cleaning my drawers later after he is tagged.  :yike:

The buck of my dreams rightly there  :tup:

I will say,

Bone if I took that pick, I would blow it up and have it mounted on glass, and placed over my fireplace!

Gents what does that buck score? Doesn’t matter one bit but I would like to see if my estimation is in the ballpark. my estimate is low 180’s.
22” main beams
3” G1’s
14” g2’s
9” g3’s
9” g4”s
25” spread
38” mass
Couple inches of trash

Pretty close to what I thought.  I had a bit less mass, but a bit longer G3’s and G4’s and I put him close to 175.  If I recall, I went

22 mains
2 g1
15 g2
10 g3
10 g4
5,4,4,3 on mass
24(22)

I usually fudge low, it has served me well.

You could squeeze 2.5 on eyeguards, 3.5 on one mass  but again, that makes easier math and it helps if the g2 is 14 not 15.

 :tup: Looks like I overshot quite a bit on mass, also I forgot that spread credit is dependent on main beam length.
