Well... It's been a bit over 24 hours.

The actual score was 132 3/8. Not official, so who knows... could be a tad off, though probably not by much. I don't have the score sheet in front of me, but, if memory serves, he was about 14 1/2 wide, and his main beams were just under 18". Those are the two measurements that probably caused most of the "over" guesses. G2's and G3's were all in the 9 - 10" range. Horacio came in really close with that first guess. Not hard to tell that he's familiar with Hill Country deer...

He looks alot like the buck hanging in my brother's office, ol Mighty Whitey, who came in at 135 as a good Hill Country buck...

Hard to believe the main beams were under 18. I'm embarrassed that I was that far off!! I'd have to be there witnessing it to believe it scored 132 +.
