Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

I just wanted to post a pic of the 9 Pointer I got Saturday in Centeral Virginia. Any rough estimates of what he may score?

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

I don't know what he may score, however, that's a great buck! What is the story behind that brute? Where abouts did you get him. I hunt in Albemarle, Madison, & Pittsylvania counties.

NICE BUCK!!!!

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

Nice Buck, looks like it might score 135-140.

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

This buck was shotin Nelson County Va. at 1:10 in the afternoon with a 270win about 40 yards. It is a old mountain buck....no fields, no food plotsand nofences. I guess it must have had a bunch of acorns to grow a rack like that. It is largest buck I have personally have taken.I am not sure what it may score (or what class buck this is) However, it seems Mountain deer grow at a slower rate than a corn farm feed deer! ha

Great buck. Should score 130+.

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

He's a nice deer. He might make 130. One thing, you don't have a lot of deductions. Your spread and beam length is where most of your pts are and he has some mass. that will count more than you think,
hellova deer though. Look at mine on the thread my 10 pt. He scored 129 4/8 green, but I had a lot of deductions

Thanks guys for your help both on the this site and helping me try to score this buck. Ialways here about classes of bucks but never new a reference to what a 130+ class buck might look like...I guess I will now!I only have (2) pics of this deer so I will attach the other one. Bestof luck to all the hunters out there.. and be careful the high winds are a coming!

Real Nice Buck! Congrat's

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

Congrats on the Buck. What is the story behind it? How high up the mountain was he? What time of day etc...

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

Nice buck! I took a pretty nice 8 recently but he didn't go that big. I'd say he'd score every bit of 125+, he's got some nice consistent mass and like prev. mentioned little deductions. Again, congrats!

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

Pointrunner,

Nice Buck brother! I assume he's going on the wall. If so, are you taking him to Rapalee Taxidermy?

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

Great buck Point runner. My fiancee's family has some land in Nelson County I hope to beallowed to hunt in the upcoming seasons. There are some nice looking woods out there. I hunt a lot in Dinwiddie(between Sussex and Amelia) and I couldn't get over the difference, it is so much flatterin Dinwiddiecompared to the elevation changes in Nelson. Anyway congratulations on a great deer and I hope to get a crack at some of those Nelson County bucks in the future.

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

yea, thats a good one, congrats

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

That buck has a great spread and fantastic mass all the up. I would say that he will be 130+. You should get online and download the B&C scoresheet. Write down the measurements and then just input them on the B&C website and it will calculate the gross score for you, including any deductions. Have a blast.

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

Pope and Young, and Buckmasters have the scoresheets on there site too

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

I looked at the score sheets that you fellas have spoke about. I have already taken this buck to the taxidermist so I will give him a call to get the measurements ofthis buck and will let you know the gross score. I guess sometimes you get all caught up in looking at the deer and forget to get out the measuring tape! Thanks for all the advice.

Pointrunner

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

Hey point,

Screw that tape, That's still a nice deer regaurdless of his tape score.

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

Super Freakin Buck...No Doubt!

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

Pointrunner, where in Nelson county do you hunt? I was practically raised in Nelson County. West or East of 151?

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

Rebel Dog,

I am hunting on the East side of 151....toward Wintergreen Resort

PointRunner

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer

Very Nice! Congrat's

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

Great buck and nice pic! I'd guess him at around 138-142.

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

That buck is bigger than 130.......more like 140 class......i see 143 gross

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

Hey Pointrunner, Sorry for taking so long to respond back. That is a dandy buck for where you are My fathers place is in Schyler. Were you hound hunting or still hunting? you are very close to the National Forest. Do you Turkey Hunt? Talking about Mountain Deer what about mountain Turkeys Thats a workout. Anyway nice Deer

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

Very nice buck!!!!! I can tell you that my Big 7 pointer Scored 142 last year. If I was you I would take it to the Big Game Show In Harrisonburg this coming September. I would bet he scores 150 something. I killed a Big 9 pointer this year, 20 inches wide and several people tell me he will score 150 something. Know that is on the VA system, on B&C you can deduct about 20 to 30 points from the VA score, that will give you a rough on B&C. My 9 pointer was killed in Central VA also.

RE: Big Virginia 9 Pointer
 

Russ4411,

I will probably will have this deer scored at the big game show..I usually go to both the Big Game show in Harrisonburg as well as the one in Fishersville at Expoland. They are both 30 minutes from where I live...and they both fall on the same weekend this year. Best of luck
