Title: What does he score?
Post by: JPhelps on October 23, 2012, 07:14:58 PM: I know these aren't the best pictures to base a score off of (maybe Littlejohn can give us some more pics). I hope John swats this buck when he goes back in there in November.

:yeah:
I'd say right around 190. He sure is wide with nice deep forks!

My GUT tells me that if the right side looks like the left he's 190 easy. Im always optimistic when looking at pictures too, so take that estimate with a grain of salt.

Post by: JPhelps on October 23, 2012, 07:41:53 PM: Yeah, we all need to bother John for the side shots. Says you can make out some of the trash and the front forks.

Title: Re: What does he score?
Post by: LittleJohn on October 23, 2012, 08:16:43 PM: Roby (outfitter) was packing out a bull in the dark and heard a loud grunt very close in front of him. Got out the Surefire light and saw this guy standing at 20 yds. Got a doz pics or so, these are the only one that turned out.

Three of us are headed in there on the 4th of Nov to try to find him or his Big Brother. Hope the snow doesn't keep us out.

I could care less about the score, buck of a lifetime for anyone. My boss has a 189" on the wall and this guy appears to be a lot bigger than that :dunno:

Post by: slim9300 on October 23, 2012, 08:36:41 PM: It's hard to see. That frame could be 185-200" depending on the depth of the front forks. That is a BIG sob no matter what. My suggestion is don't waste time with the spotting scope. Just pull the trigger.

Title: Re: What does he score?
Post by: LittleJohn on October 24, 2012, 03:29:02 AM: Roby said his G1's and G2's on both sides come off his main beam like a whitetail and his fronts are forked like a normal Mulie. 4x4 with little stickers, not sure on eye guards.
:drool:

Post by: jetboatinghunter on October 24, 2012, 09:08:55 AM: I love that buck! I hope you guys hammer him?

How many bucks like that die of old age...especially in the Bob or other wildernesses. I would think that most of those bucks hardly ever see people?

Littlejohn, keep us posted please! I wonder if could go to the Bob in 2014?

Post by: JPhelps on October 24, 2012, 01:00:07 PM: I'm going to try and put some reason to a score :yike:. My assumptions are he is symmetrical.

G1s=4
G2s=32
G3s= (abnormal points on a muley)=28
G4s=20
Main Beams =60
Spread =30
Mass=32

For a total of 206 +/- 40 inches :chuckle: he's a stud and I can't see the trash but that would all just be a bonus.
