Any ideas what he'd score?

I shot this guy on sat night in the Zirkel Wilderness Area (early season hunt). I never measured him but can tell you he has 5 inch thick antlers at his eye guards (with the velvet, which I'm sure makes him seem bigger). I didn't think to measure him before taking him to my taxidermist.

I'm not a trophy hunter, but I won't pass on a trophy!

This is the biggest deer I've ever shot, by a lot. See the attached pic.

Just wondering what you guys think he might score?

Thanks!

Very hard to tell from the pictures. Especially that right antler with the extra points. If I had to tag a wild guess I would say somewhere in the upper 170s to low 180s neighborhood. Great buck, congrats!

Wow nice buck.......he would certainly score a spot in my freezer. Congratulations.

"Any ideas what he'd score?" Enough! He's a great buck with a lot of character. Smile in those pics!

Nice buck, but I don't see any orange in the pic with you and the rifle. Hope you wore it during the hunt because CO requires 500 sq inches (including a hat) for all rifle and muzzleloading hunts. I had a friend get caught hunting deer without his orange hat and it cost him over $500 before it was all said and done.

Nice buck. No idea what he scores, but that velvet looks awesome.

Great looking Buck, not good at guessing so won't even try but will say congrats on a great deer.

Thanks for all the comments.

Flags...I was definitely wearing my orange hat/vest during the hunt. I took it off to start working on him.

Had a tough pack out. I'm finally over the soreness, but well worth all the effort. Already had two meals for the family... tenderloins and backstrap. I have meat marinating for jerky.
