Yeah, everyone saying it will score 110 crazy! That deer will score 125+ easily. Good luck getting him!

I am no expert at scoring at all, but I have a feeling he is being underestimated on spread, he looks very wide, but that could be camera angle. If I had the shot I would take it!

SW - your just going to have to pop him and put the tape on him

He is a fine buck - I would take him.

But I still think he is no where close to 130

Well we have the benefit of being able to blow up the picture ( I had to shrink it to put it in the post). We have a buck on the wall that has been scored by 4 offical B/C scorers at 149 3/8. We have been comparing this deer with that one. Neither has great mass but fair. The buck on the wall is only a 8 pointer and this is a 10 (although the extra point is not long) it does give you an extra diameter measurement, width appears about the same on each judging by the ears, neither has alot of deductions. My buddy is guessing 160 net I say 150 net. So we were trying to settle a little friendly argument. Will have to get him to the ground to really settle it. Either way both are saving our tags, this was taken 30 yards from our stands but both pictures have been at 3:00 in the morning.

I won' t argue that we may be optimistic about the 150 to 160 but everyone has got to have a dream.

I think It would go between 125-130" . I have 2 deer on the wall, a 135" and a 172" non-typical, no way that deer is bigger than the 135. Doesn' t have the mass or tine length to even push 140" . Sorry to knock you down but just saying what I think. Put him on the gound and get him scored and you may prove us all wrong. Good luck!! By the way he would go on my wall anyday!!
