Dang buddy, that is a nice shed, and if his other side matches and he has a decent spread, that is gonna be a absolute brute. If my calculations are correct, that shed should be around a 70"-72" shed. Match that up with another side and your looking at 140"-144", add a 18" inside spread and your talking about a 160" buck! Great find!!

buck, i did the same math and got the same numbers and about pooped myself...thats a hawg 8pt...

if you go by the measurements and comparisions i gave, you can get a good feel of how big it is..ie...G3 is 8 or so inches...so theres about 10" from the G3 to the end of the main beam...

the angle was a little awkward so i couldnt even guesstimate the spread of him...but hes a hawg...

theres not much doubt in my mind that its from this year...hair simply isnt going to stick on an antler thats been in the weather for a full year...and the color would most likely be gone...just took a chewin from the local rodents quick..
