Default Anyone wanna take a guess

My father-in-lawstumbled across this skull awhile back on his farm. I'm not sure how the deer died, he had been dead for quite some time whenhe found him. Nonetheless, he is a pretty impressive animal.

Take a guess at what you think he might gross. I'll let you know the answer later on tonight or tomorrow sometime.

Let's see who can come the closest. Here are a few pics.

I'm not very good at this, but I'd say maybe 160ish

It does have good mass and carries it throughout, regardless - one heckuva deer!

I had a guess in my head but then when I scrolled and saw other guesses they were quite a bit lower than mine.. Oh well.. I'm gonna stick with my original thought and say 160"... Maybe I'm way over.. But I'm usually close.. so idkkkkkkkkk
