Post by: DBHAWTHORNE on June 28, 2011, 07:48:46 PM: No...but he is a shooter. It wouldn't surprise me if he is 150's gross when he is finished growing.

Post by: KNOXY on June 28, 2011, 08:06:11 PM: just my :twocents: mature whitetail bucks ears are usually 18” wide tip to tip,
he's well past aprox(23"-25") wide. Ears are between 6 1/2 to7" long on average, so you can see how long his points are I'd say he's already in the 140's with great mass. To bad it's your buddy's buck maybe he'll let you shoot his little brother in front. :chuckle:

Post by: DBHAWTHORNE on June 28, 2011, 08:45:22 PM: For reference the buck below is 144 gross (with velvet). His inside spread is 19 6/8. The buck in the trail cam photos definitely has more mass than this buck and his brows look a little longer. I think his inside spread is around 20-21 (20 inches plus is a spread measurement often thrown around but a 20 inch plus whitetail is the exception rather than the rule). He could be wider but it's hard to tell with only one pic.
