He does sport great main beam length. Really adds character to go with the brows.

Awesome buck for sure , way to go!

But , I also feel that deer wont score over 145. Look at the entry for team #20 and the score of that buck and tell me he(from team #20) doesn't own the "biggest buck" title right now.

RE: Mature buck down!! Team >>>---PASSTHRU---> w/ pics
 

Look buddy I am not going to argue with you or anyone else.
If you can't read the score sheet I posted it's no ones fault but your own.

If you add JUST his main beams it adds to 51 1/8
now add spread 51 1/8 + 18 6/8= 69 7/8
now add just his mass measurements 33 3/8 + 69 7/8= 103 2/8
now add his brow tines 103 2/8 + 8 3/8= 111 5/8
now add g2's 111 5/8 + 19 5/8= 131 3/8
now add g3's 131 3/8+ 17 6/8= 149 2/8
now add his g4 149 2/8 + 3 4/8= 152 6/8
now add his 2 split brows and his kicker off the base. 152 6/8 + 8 5/8= 161 1/8

With a ton of deductions he will net mid 130's.

Numbers don't lie and here they are once again.

Here is another view

Dont want to turn this into a pi$$ing contest , but I feel credit should be given where credit is due (biggest buck in contest).

Yes I can add , I can also type any sort of numbers on here that I wish.

Maybe your taxi guy made a mistake?

I've assisted our local scorer with many many bucks every year and when someone brings in a photo of a dandy buck with nice mass it's clearly evident before even seeing the deer in person. With an 18" spread and reasonable tine length it takes a ton of mass to break over the mid 150's and I dont see that type of mass in any of your pics.

Compare it to this buck...http://forum.hunting.net/asppg/upfil...s544634992.jpg

I have saw that pic it is a fine buck. As I said in the origional thread of his harvest.

I wouldn't consider 33 3/8 great mass. I would call it good mass.

It isn't so much the mass that makes his score. Its the long main beams, decent tine length, 12 points and nearly 9 inches of abnormal points. It all adds up.

How about drive on down from packer country and measure it yourself, and be sure to bring your buddy since your only the "helper". :D So come on down!!

Now look at the pic and these measurements and tell me what isn't right. Good luck!!!

I would also like to add I will have him officially scored for P&Y entry once the 60 day drying time is up.

Congrats on a great buck! It looks like he was trying to grow some drop tines.

RE: Mature buck down!! Team >>>---PASSTHRU---> w/ pics
 

I believe you, b/c I know how pictures can be deceiving, I have seen it myself. But here is a pic of a deer I shot a few years back, his main beams are 27 5/8 and 26 6/8, he has a 18 2/8 inside spread. He unofficially grossed 157 3/8 typical and netted just under 135, and officially netted 168 6/8 non typical. But like I said earlier I am not doubting it, I just can't see it myself. It is a great deer non-the-less. Congrats and good luck on your doe.

RE: Mature buck down!! Team >>>---PASSTHRU---> w/ pics
 

For you guys doubting me instead of sitting there saying it isnt right try to prove me wrong.

Lets see you make a score sheet and estimate from the pics and we will see what you come up with.

I Look forward to what you guys come up with.

Remember this is gross score.

Take the gross typical frame score then and add all the non typical points to the typical score for the total gross score.

Thanks. I already took a couple does.;)

RE: Mature buck down!! Team >>>---PASSTHRU---> w/ pics
 

It's not worth my time!

Congrats on a great buck! I think we all know who holds the biggest deer title so far!;)
