Short hand I did

2x2.      4
17x2.   34
10x2.   20
12x2.   24
32 mass
23x2.   46
23

183 so 180 buck.



He is awfully purty!
i think you're pretty spot on Doug except I dont think his g1's are 2". Closer to 1.5". I'd give his passenger side g4 12" but driver side is closer to 10" and give him 33 on mass.
It is foolish and wrong to mourn these men.  Rather, we should thank god that such men lived.  -General George S. Patton

Man I must really suck at scoring cause my 176 bucks looks WAY bigger than this buck and guys throwing out 180-190.
agree!  I must suck too, guessed 172ish
“In common with”..... not so much!!

I've only seen a few 180+ bucks in person and they seemed to be a little heavier than this guy, who is a stud by the way--would be happy for life to get a buck like that, and so I voted 170.

Upper 160’s, don’t think it hits the 170 mark.

I’d guess 175” I don’t see it hitting 180. If I was describing the buck to my hunting buddies I would say a spindly 4 point. I think you 32” mass measurement is generous for sure. But it’s nice and wide and pretty tall. Handsome deer. Thanks for sharing

I thought wider than 23. Because of this and the tine lengths, I guessed 190ish.
 I remember a buck that hung in the restaurant at Mineral Springs, (circa 1992) that had a plaque and don't quote me but I thought it said, Washington state record Mule deer and had the score at 204. It was also wide and tall with long tines but not very heavy. Very similar to this buck.

If I was shooting, I would conservatively put him in the upper 160’s.   I think his shape makes him appear a little bigger than he is.   

I’ve been off by 10” before.   Rather be pleasantly surprised than not. :chuckle:
