I also stated in an associated thread how hard it is to come up with a close score since all you have to be off is an inch on each measurement, which is easy to do just looking at a picture, and you've missed by 15" plus or minus. One or two guys on this thread have put a range of 15", which maybe I should have done too. I could have said 140-155 and would probably be in the ballpark, which is actually the verbiage the OP used to begin with. So what if we are wrong, as it's a guessing game when you look at a picture. You guessed his bases at 4" and I think they will go 5" or a little more based on a mulie that I have that's about the same and he's 5 1/4" by actual measurement!
I agree with you. I have a 193 and a 161 on my wall along with several in the 135 to 145 range and I believe this deer is closer to 150 than 135 for sure. If its not I want be surprised though as the picture is hard to tell.
