Guess the score of this typical
« on: February 07, 2025, 07:24:34 PM »
I didn't want to highjack the measure this thread, so I added this one. Even though judging pictures is tough, I like trying to guess scores of mule deer. So have at it.

How about you make this multiple choice in 5” increments and give us the answer in a few days?

Smaller than the photo’d buck, mostly because of his short mains and spread credit. Lovely backs.  Also a little less mass.    Mains are a killer.  Upper 160s to 170ish.

This buck appears heavier and better point length than the photo buck. Smaller beams and inside spread.

Yup.  Looks to be slightly wider, better mass, looks maybe weaker in the mains.

Apparently, with those numbers. I must be biased because I was standing next to the live animal versus a skeleton on the wall.   I would never have guessed his backs to be 19 or his mains to be 21.  They look shorter to me. For some reason Although they are similiar I like the other one better.   :dunno:

 I have one very similar to this one, that I believe you have seen in a pic, with my daughter holding it, that has even shorter mains than this one (19”) and it still scores over 180” officially. ;)
