If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

It was at a local taxidermist it had a 24 inside and 27 outside but he said it only scored 160 because the points were short. Anyway it looks impresive.

Nice buck, but 160?? no way. you know what it takes for a whitetail to score 160. the tines are way short

Someone is measuring wrong  :dunno: or the pics are very deceiving I would have said 23" wide but at 27 it still looks like a 130-135 buck to me.
