Title: Lincoln County Mule Deer! (Updated)
Post by: Elkslayer on July 01, 2011, 06:45:12 PM: Ok guys, just got home from picking this guy up from the taxidermist. These were a set of sheds that I picked up back in 2007. Not bad for Lincoln County. I have seen 3-4 others in the same area the last couple of years that will go just as big and bigger.
Let me know what you guys think it scores then I will tell ya what I came up with!
The mount was done by Daydreamn.

Title: Re: Lincoln County Mule Deer!
Post by: jackelope on July 01, 2011, 07:56:03 PM: 163" or so...neat buck.
I think he's bigger than 150 because he's got the front forks going for him.
:dunno:
I suck at this game anyway so I'm probably wrong.
Title: Re: Lincoln County Mule Deer!
Post by: carpsniperg2 on July 01, 2011, 08:02:16 PM: I would guess 150ish I don't think e has the forks to go more.

Post by: eastside boy on July 01, 2011, 09:06:38 PM: Gotta be in the mid 160s at least with nice main beams and g2s like that!!!!.......backs aren't horrible either.

Title: Re: Lincoln County Mule Deer!
Post by: wsucowboy on July 02, 2011, 12:40:33 AM: 168" Good buck
Title: Re: Lincoln County Mule Deer!
Post by: bobcat on July 02, 2011, 01:34:06 AM: Yeah that's gotta be at least 170. I've got a buck that scores 163, and yours is bigger.
Title: Re: Lincoln County Mule Deer!
Post by: link on July 02, 2011, 08:03:46 AM: I think he is bigger than you guys think. He's got good beams, great 4's, good eyeguards, and pretty good 2's. I'm going to ball park it at 175 6/8" :chuckle:
That is a great looking buck no matter what he scores. I'd shoot that buck anyday.
Title: Re: Lincoln County Mule Deer!
Post by: MLBowhunting on July 02, 2011, 10:48:54 AM: my guess is 170, he looks great also
Title: Re: Lincoln County Mule Deer! (Updated w/score)
Post by: Elkslayer on July 02, 2011, 06:39:12 PM: His gross score is 186 6/8 with just over 5 inches of deduction he nets 181 4/8.
Here is a photo of the score sheet.

Title: Re: Lincoln County Mule Deer! (Updated)
Post by: MtnMuley on July 02, 2011, 06:47:27 PM: I see a solid 170 with those fronts, but would never guess 180.
Title: Re: Lincoln County Mule Deer! (Updated)
Post by: bobcat on July 02, 2011, 07:37:23 PM: I'm not surprised. That buck has just about everything. They don't get much better than that! I'm not much of an expert on scoring deer, but I'd guess what helps that buck is the symmetry and the long tine lengths.

Post by: link on July 03, 2011, 10:34:30 AM: I think you could have gotten another inch or two out of the spread credit too! :twocents:
Title: Re: Lincoln County Mule Deer! (Updated)
Post by: GrainfedMuley on August 27, 2011, 05:33:01 AM: For Lincoln County, Yes that's a dandy set. Not trying to step on your honey hole, I hunt Lincoln County also. We are on private land northeast of town. Where, roughly are you talking about. Years ago I pulled a really nice 3 point of the Swanson Lake DNR land. This buck came from the private land we are on. Around the Mill canyon area. You have another 30 inches on my boy. Very nice mount.

Post by: Elkslayer on August 27, 2011, 06:30:04 PM: Found his sheds N/E of Davenport! That is a very respectable buck as well GrainfedMuley!
Title: Re: Lincoln County Mule Deer! (Updated)
Post by: C-Money on August 28, 2011, 09:03:05 PM: There is some good quality running around above Davenport. If you get on property in any direction, you will find dandys! Nice bucks you guys!
