Title: What will it score?
Post by: LDennis24 on August 20, 2023, 09:33:07 PM: Just curious how wide you guys think this buck is and what it will score? I'm guessing 160ish? And maybe 25" wide?

Post by: Dan-o on August 20, 2023, 09:38:16 PM: Wow....... Lots of wide there.

IDK on score, but sure a beauty.

Width is overrated, I’m guessing 140’s as well. Decent general season buck, wouldn’t get a second look after that. :twocents:

Post by: carpsniperg2 on August 20, 2023, 11:56:21 PM: X3 I don’t see him breaking into the 150 range

Post by: mburrows on August 21, 2023, 05:36:41 AM: Sweet looking buck. Looks pretty young with some great potential. Im guessing right around 140" & 23-24" wide.
Title: Re: What will it score?
Post by: jrebel on August 21, 2023, 06:02:37 AM: His width is 26-27 inches all day long and it would surprise be e if he went 28. I’m measuring outside width. Ears on mule deer go 20-22 inches and he is easily outside his ears by 2-3 inches.

Score…..150 give or take a few inches but I’m not the best scorers. Really nice deer for that area so I would flatten him given the chance.

Post by: C-Money on August 21, 2023, 06:09:33 AM: Nice pictures! I too think he is a bit wider than 25". Beautiful buck!

Post by: outdooraddict on August 21, 2023, 07:51:29 AM: hopefully they have good hiding spots, or they arent long for this world
Title: Re: What will it score?
Post by: Wingin it on August 21, 2023, 08:02:12 AM: 145-150. Decent spread, but weak fronts. A couple more years on him and he could be a real stud!

Post by: nwwanderer on August 21, 2023, 10:29:52 AM: They love to bed in the brassicas and weed regrowth under the crop is a favorite, skeletonweed, field bind weed and prickly lettuce. Thanks for the pics!!

Post by: jackelope on August 23, 2023, 09:42:08 AM: I’m not very good at scoring but I also think he’s a 145-150” buck. Looks like short main beams and shallow forks all around.

Post by: Klickitatsteelie on August 23, 2023, 01:55:59 PM: Shoot him and let us all know. I guess mid 140s
Title: Re: What will it score?
Post by: jackelope on August 23, 2023, 02:34:27 PM: This buck is verified 150 and change for comparison. Can’t remember 2/8 or something like that measured by an official scorer.

Post by: Ridgerunner on August 23, 2023, 02:37:26 PM: Mid 140's is the camp I'm in. Nice an wide but not a lot of tine length, good looking buck for the area.
Title: Re: What will it score?
Post by: LDennis24 on August 24, 2023, 05:57:37 PM: Ok so looking at Jackelopes buck I would say he's definitely 150. They could be twins.

Post by: MADMAX on August 25, 2023, 09:51:23 PM: I think he’d score some gravy and sides😜

Title: Re: What will it score?
Post by: dvolmer on August 26, 2023, 01:12:00 PM: 140’s gross.
Title: Re: What will it score?
Post by: huntnphool on August 27, 2023, 11:21:01 PM: Jacks G2’s are way longer, as is the spread credit. No way that buck at the time of that pic is 150”…$0.02 :twocents:
Title: Re: What will it score?
Post by: MtnMuley on August 28, 2023, 03:17:45 AM: I don't see any way that buck scores less than mid 150's.
