I think that is one very nice buck, I hate to disappoint you but I too say it goes around 170. Give him another year and maybe he'll make 200. Some closer pics of him after he peels the velvet, and maybe he would score differently.

Listen Young'n, the width to which I was referring to had not so much to do with score as it did have to do do with beam length. And the difference between a buck that is only 16" wide and has beams of 20 or 21" compared to a buck that is 20" wide with beams of 25" can be considerable. I'm probably the last guy you should laugh at when it comes to deer.

after listening to everyone here and reviewing some of the side angle shots to add up lengths, i agree that 200+ is going to be high. but still after guessing lengths and all, i still put him at a bare minimum of 182. what it is that is putting him so high is 18 points plus all the brow tines will give us a lot of 10 to 12" mass measurements. i am going to put him between 182 and 195, if it gets killed i will repost with a little contest.
we are already loosing sleep on what our strategy will be for this specific deer.
thanks for everyones input, i will be the first to say when i am wrong on an initial score and i can't wait to see what an official score might be for this deer (crossing my fingers that he gets killed!).
