Default Biggest 8 ptr. I've ever seen! What about you?

Pulled my cards from my cameras while I was out hunting this week and got a picture of a stud 8 ptr. Biggest I have ever seen. What about you? What do you think he scores? I think he is pushing 155-160"

I don't think he is that big. I shot this guy and he was 144.

That is a nice deer. I have been capturing some large deer, too including this 8 pt stud with a 10 pt in the background. I don't know what he will score....anyone tell me what they think?

Biggest I've seen in real life was around 140". In the Legendary Whitetails books there are two that are in the 180s.

Very close I'd say. I think yours is bigger actually. Both are nice deer

Just took this one October 3rd on public land. I'm not used to even seeing deer like this. I was kind of surprised when I took him to processor and a employee told me he'd go 160" and that was quite rare for an 8 pointer. Got back to hotel and put a tape to him. Came out to 160 0/8".
