What do you think he scores??
« on: January 22, 2008, 09:16:16 PM »
  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.

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'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.

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

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.

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.

 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.

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.

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.

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?
