That buck is just pretty, I dont know if its the color, the way the rack grew or what. Nice job!

NICE BUCK! If you don't mind me asking RiverRat did you score him...just wondering because he's a 4pt.. What Unit?

DBHAWTHORNE · « **Reply #9 on:** November 29, 2011, 05:19:51 PM »

Awesome Buck!! Big 4x4's are my favorite.

Thats a HOG!

Awesome buck!! Glad to see someone put in the effort and track down their kill. Congrats on the buck of a lifetime

Sweet deer, congrats

CedarPants · « **Reply #13 on:** November 29, 2011, 06:15:08 PM »

I took one look at those pictures and the first word that came to mind was "perfect". Not sure what it is about that deer, but it's my favorite I've seen on here so far this year. Nicely done!

RIVERRAT · « **Reply #14 on:** November 29, 2011, 07:08:42 PM »

Bornforhorns... I have not scored him but my taxi is gonna give me a rough score soon. Anyone want to venture a field score guess on him? He has an 3 or so inch point on the right side thats hard to see and his left brow tine is broken off. I would love to hear what folks think he may score. I would like to think he is P&Y elligible. Thanks for the good words guys!

Todd_ID · « **Reply #15 on:** November 29, 2011, 07:48:34 PM »

Heck of a buck! Congrats!!

You'll make P&Y net with 4" to spare: at least that's my guess. I think he'll be 150" gross with 11" of deductions.

Pathfinder101 · « **Reply #16 on:** November 30, 2011, 11:16:30 PM »

I thought P&Y only needed to score 125" net...

I'd say he's a 150" buck gross...

KopperBuck · « **Reply #17 on:** November 30, 2011, 11:46:16 PM »

Great looking 4x. Like those big guys, like a big 3x muley.

Was he still alive when you found him? I only ask b/c in the first pic it looks like you got his legs and body arranged good for a photo (great deer again...). Nice job.

carpsniperg2 · « **Reply #18 on:** November 30, 2011, 11:56:21 PM »

I think he will net around 135-140"

PolarBear · « **Reply #19 on:** December 01, 2011, 02:01:12 AM »

Beautiful buck, congratulations!

Holg3107 · « **Reply #21 on:** December 01, 2011, 08:27:24 AM »

I think hell just push into the 145" range gross, high 130s net. Great looking buck!!!!

HornHoarder · « **Reply #22 on:** December 01, 2011, 08:29:32 AM »

Should make P&Y easy. Beautiful buck.

Whoops. I thought it was 135" minimum. You'll have 14" to spare according to my very uneducated guesstimations.

RIVERRAT · « **Reply #24 on:** December 01, 2011, 10:28:28 AM »

SORRY GUYS...I messed up the poll and left out the 140 - 150. It was just scored at 145 1/8. I was just curious what everyone thought. All that matters to me....its my biggest buck! Thanks so much for all the positive feedback. I will post the pics of the mount in a year or so when its done. Im still like a lil kid with a new bike....I cant believe i took one that big.

jamesjett · « **Reply #25 on:** December 01, 2011, 10:32:10 AM »

Congrats on a nice buck!

JLS · « **Reply #26 on:** December 01, 2011, 10:52:25 AM »

That's a beautiful buck. Did I misread your story, or did you shoot him at 57 yards?

RIVERRAT · « **Reply #27 on:** December 01, 2011, 11:08:22 AM »

57 yds....yes!

blackveltbowhunter · « **Reply #28 on:** December 01, 2011, 11:39:26 AM »

What a gorgeous deer! Nice work and great tracking!

dave · « **Reply #29 on:** December 01, 2011, 11:46:08 AM »

im gussing.......145 and 1/8th net!

RIVERRAT · « **Reply #30 on:** December 11, 2011, 08:15:37 PM »

Be nice Dave.. or I may not have dry boots for you next year. LOL

boonerboy · « **Reply #32 on:** December 11, 2011, 08:30:52 PM »

highside74 · « **Reply #33 on:** December 11, 2011, 08:34:07 PM »

What a beast. You must have had some really nice arrow's to be confident at 57 yards

I finished your other 3 up friday. Try not to practice with broadheads at the same spot rook.

head hunter · « **Reply #34 on:** December 11, 2011, 08:37:47 PM »

Thats a dandy sounds like this year may be hard to beat

RIVERRAT · « **Reply #35 on:** December 12, 2011, 06:25:49 PM »

HIGHSIDE.......I think I may have had one GOOD arrow out of the dozen I had fletched...lol

I did have my release with me, that I am sure of
