Very cool buck, very symetrical.  I have one that could be his twin except tine length, so I'll say gross 182 1/8, net 179 5/8.  That is an awesome buck and one like that makes a hunter very proud.  Congrats. :)

I was gonna wing a 170-175 guess out there. Thats as precise as my guess gets. I just don't see 190. weak forks, not a lot of mass. Beautiful buck, don't get me wrong, 1st day buck for me, but I can't see 190.

Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Don't know what I am missing. A lot of 180-190 guesses. I can't see him over 170 IMO.
