Well things sure are slow around this sight now that all hunting is done. And Ive never shot anything or really have had much interest in scroing, but what do you think he scores? Hes got an outside spread of 25", 1 eye guard is 2" and the other is just over 1". Two extra points on his left side, one is about 2" and the other is 1". He sure is a pretty buck!!

I'll guess 155, but that is only a guess.
-
181 3/8 gross.
do you know what he scores ?
-
no clue. I know his back forks are pretty weak.
-
i'll throw a guess out 178 gross
-
168??
oh ya and 162 net.
-
169-3/8 gross, 161-1/8 net
-
Im guessing 176 1/4 gross....I just might be a 1/4 inch off but we will see..... ;) :chuckle:
-
His backs may by weak but his fronts and mass are sweet. I really like that buck!!! You ought to be proud.
-
I don't know much about the scoring but he looks pretty darn sweet. :IBCOOL:
-
I have one almost the same exact size that scores about 170... I think yours might have a couple other odd points that will push it over. I'll guess 175 gross.
-
i'll say 158" gross and 149" net but I'm usually a little low.
-
155-160 gross
-
I'll say low 170's gross.
-
185 gross and 170net
-
163 net
-
I'm bettin' that thing scores right at 170". Take it to the show this weekend and have it scored. Whoever was closest in guessing the score gets the rack. :chuckle:
-
I'd guestimate 165, regardless that is a nice buck to come out of that area, we're seeing better quality bucks in these past few years up there, not exactly where you shot yours but a few ridges to the east.
-
I'm thinkin he'll go about 174 gross & 168 net. Nice deer.
-
169" gross, nice buck!
-
Im guessin he scores, Biggest Buck in Lifetime. for washington.
-
Not sure what that would score but damn that's a nice buck. :drool:
-
Damn Ironhead you beat me to it! I'm with you though my first impression was 163 net.
-
Agree 163-165. Nice Buck
-
175 gross, 165 net, no matter what it scores it's a beautiful buck.

He is one of those bucks you don't want to know the net on. He doesn't match up with those darn points, so will only get credit for the smallest ones. He will net in the 150's lower end and gross in the 160's upper end. Very Very nice buck
-
Well I think I agree with boone, I am getting him scored at the show.. so i will let you all know. Thanks for the input guys and gal!!
-
Great buck, I say 172, thats the gross and I am guess 160ish net. I amy be to far apart but who cares about the net anyways. Oh ya I guess the book cares, but I don't. Once again great buck, I'll take character over score anyday.

That is a great buck. It will gross 172 3/8 and net 163 even.
Congratulations.
-
I think most guys here are pretty close, however they don't count character in the net score that buck has plenty of it. A great looking deer for sure.
-
gross 171 and finishing out at 166 1/2 :dunno:

Great comments Ridgerunner, about what I was thinking. Great character and nice buck jjdavis2222...............So, what did he score?
-
That's a sweet looking buck JJ! I'll throw my 2 cents in............164 :dunno:
-
Has it been scored yet jjdavis2222? Let's see the digits!!!
-
Blueballs was the closest. Well now I have a better understanding of how big a 170 buck is. Mine wasnt close.
His gross was only 152 7/8 and his net was 141 7/8. He lost alot on his back and he wasnt to high. But now I have the rack at home and I dont want to give it back. I would love to see a 200" deer dead or alive.
-
Nice buck JJ, lots of character and I love the color. IMO your buck scores 152 7/8. If the buck grew it he should get credit for it, period!!!!! Stick to it, you will tag that 170 sooner or later.
-
wow...i was way the hell off...what threw me off?
thats an awesome buck i don't care how you slice it.
-
heck of a nice buck. It just goes to show what it takes to to get to 170 and higher. it takes a bunch of bone to get to 200 inches. Thats why i always smile and laugh when people see all these 180 inch deer runining around. Congrats again on a great buck. Any time you wanna see a 200 incher swing on by. Good luck next year and hopefully you can keep adding to that trophy wall.

"Any time you wanna see a 200 incher swing on by."
*censored* G :chuckle: JJ, if you go over there let me know I want to check it out too, I can show you several 180+ bucks but will have to beg G as well to see a 200 :chuckle:
-
Did you happen to get your gross and net mixed up, or did you drop a digit with a typo on your gross score. Gross is the biggest, net is the smallest. I was hoping you weren't going to be ticked at my guesses, or insulted.
-
Thanks. I fixed it. I told you I wasnt into scoring. Thanks.
-
I'm surprised I was ten off, but this cyber scoring is tuff. Like I said, this is a buck that just doesn'tmatch with the scoring system. I'd have dumped him in a heartbeat. Without hesitating as a matter of fact. I think he was one of the nicest bucks taken this year in the state. Hell with the score. Who did it anyway, the show?
-
JJ thats still a very very nice buck! It has lots of character! I will also have a better understanding how big a 170 buck is. Well done!
-
Thanks guys!! Ya I took it to the show.
-
Rob i wanna see your wall of MONTANA MONSTERS!! oh and i guess i wouldnt mind lookin at those methow bucks either :chuckle: I would tell you guys to head over but i dont think your snowmobiles would make it over the passes might run out of gas haha
-
Wow I was 10 off also. Again a real nice Buck but hard to judge!!!
-
Some bucks just dont score that well but that buck is a keeper for sure!
