BigJ,

What a nice post to wake up too this morning out west. It's a little after 4 a.m. here and I sat down to sip a cup of coffee, check my weather report for hunting after work today.... I saw your post; hadn't heardmuch from you asof lateand thought wow! Great buck BigJ, I am reallyhappy for you and your entire family there! Great photos as well! I know how big you are in stature, that is definately a healthy buck! Again congrats and thanks for making my morning even that much more enjoyable. Good luck the rest of the season.

I appreciate the kind words....

being 6'4" and 325lbs and wearing a size 58 tall jacket, sometimes the deer don't look too big with me in the photos LOLI will score him when I get the mount back from the taxi but I took some measurements, he has a 19.5in inside spread and 22in main beams G2's are 9 1/2 so he should score pretty well. I didn't get a live weight but he went202lbs field dressed so I'm guessing 230-240lbs on the hoof.

Thanks again to all.
