That is about what I thought (150). Pretty wide with long beams and G2s & G3s.

It takes about 1min. to bring up my calculator in a separate window and run the numbers. I figure the MB's; "H" measurements; tines; spread and it is what it is.

155" range. Awesome buck!! I no longer look at a picture and add up numbers, I just look at them and throw a number out. I'm much better It seems doing It that way, It's always how I use to do It. I think too much doing It the other way.

142" gross. He's a dandy, and one that wouldn't get a free pass by me that's for sure. He's a touch weak on mass, but makes up for it with LONG BEAMS and Tines!!! Great deer, good luck finding that one this year......
