8 point closeups - Real Size?

I'm curious what you all think about this buck. These are the 1st pictures of him since Mid July - and he's grown, but due to the close up pictures - I'm not sure how much.

DO you guys think he's more than 100"? Not that it matters to me - he's at least 2-1/2 years old which is my goal - I wonder if the closeup picture makes the rack look bigger than is?

Thanks!

I would say he is 113. He is definately a nice buck and ifyou give him 2 more years he will be a monster.

I would put him at 2.5 and I would agree around 115. Nice pics though.

He is definetly a 2.5 year old but I believe these guys are over-scoring him. His inside spread is going to be around 14" to 15" after he looses his velvet and he is gonna loose a good bit of mass. His G-2's will end up at around 6" and his G-3's will end up around 4". His G-1's should be around 2", and I am gonna guess his main beams at around 17". From what I can see, he is going to go right around 96"-97"

RE: 8 point closeups - Real Size?

Thanks all -

I hope to get a better picture or two of him. I was thinking around 100 - and hopefully a bit more. He's a good buck for our area - but not the best one out there right now -

What about this guy? I'm thinking 115? He's got a few more inches Beam Length - Sure would like him to be P&Y - but I don't think so. I'd be very happy with either!
