Just curious how wide you guys think this buck is and what it will score? I'm guessing 160ish? And maybe 25" wide?

Width is overrated, I’m guessing 140’s as well. Decent general season buck, wouldn’t get a second look after that.

Sweet looking buck. Looks pretty young with some great potential. Im guessing right around 140" & 23-24" wide.

His width is 26-27 inches all day long and it would surprise be e if he went 28. I’m measuring outside width. Ears on mule deer go 20-22 inches and he is easily outside his ears by 2-3 inches.
Score…..150 give or take a few inches but I’m not the best scorers. Really nice deer for that area so I would flatten him given the chance.

145-150. Decent spread, but weak fronts. A couple more years on him and he could be a real stud!

I’m not very good at scoring but I also think he’s a 145-150” buck. Looks like short main beams and shallow forks all around.

This buck is verified 150 and change for comparison. Can’t remember 2/8 or something like that measured by an official scorer.

Mid 140's is the camp I'm in. Nice an wide but not a lot of tine length, good looking buck for the area.

Ok so looking at Jackelopes buck I would say he's definitely 150. They could be twins.

Jacks G2’s are way longer, as is the spread credit. No way that buck at the time of that pic is 150”…$0.02

I don't see any way that buck scores less than mid 150's.
