8 x 6 Blacktail? Score it?
« on: December 14, 2010, 01:16:11 PM »
I acquired a large blacktail through brother in-law... hunter somewhat unknown and not verifiable... early 60's buck.
I'm thinking this buck will go high in the non typical class. Should I have it scored?
I'm thinking scored but not booked??  :dunno: Suggestions?

Should I post pics? would that help?

That's got to be one of the best looking non-typical blacktail I've seen.

Yes, have it measured.

No, I would not have it entered in B&C.

Get a cape and get a shoulder mount done!

Hard to find a cape...most bucks that would fit are mounted....

I have a couple of bucks in the 120's and it dwarfs them...

This buck was scored 124 net 116 and the above buck has a bunch of inches over it.

that is a true trophy, scored yes, entered no. There are capes out there for a big mature blacktail like that one. Would not be hard to get a cape to fit it.

Hard to score a non typical over the computer, But His forks arn't to big, but he has alot of nice inlines. I would gross his from 150 to maybe 165???? Just a guess tho

You should be able to get a rough estimate with a cloth tape yourself.. it's gotta be in the 150's
Is it a washington buck? and do you know what county it came from?
