    I think the spread is 21-22 inches but I may be wrong. I used the 7 1/2 inch rule on the pic with his head down and see it about 22.

    I would say 155 or there abouts. Not much mass but a very nice deer.

    Who cares? That is the buck of a lifetime for most people.

    I hope you harvest him so we can see how close our estimates are. Best of luck!

    I can tell you this much about that buck... he won't score crap until you kill him. And I'd for sure whack him... what a gorgeous deer!
    He has 10 points.
