Upper 160's could possibly be 170" Pictures can be slightly deceptive. He's got 40 inches in mass.

Id say gross score yes but deductions bring it under 170 still an awesome deer

cowboy4513 01-11-2010 05:46 AM

I would say close to 170 gross

IDK he'll be really close I think

Nope. Not enough tine length. G1s way too short. Right G5 might not even be long enough to count, but defintely a deduction compared to left G5. Kicker off of the right base is a another 3 inch deduction. Overall symetry of tines is gonna produce lots of deductions. I know some could care less about deductions, but to get the name Booner, you gotta play by their rules.

Very nice deer though.

that sure is a thick set of bones!!! its fat, and pointy, definitely a mounter!!!! but no p&y or booner i dont think...i would nick name that "The Fat Nasty" and post it on the net!

but no p&y or booner i dont think
P&Y minimum is 125" so I think it would make that minimum. Although I think it was shot with a flintlock so it would be a longhunter trophy.

No joking here, I held this rack in my hands...the dude shot it in Lycoming County, thought it was a doe initially! (it was laying under a hemlock when he shot first), it got up and he hit it 3 more times...it has 8 scoreable points on each side...early tape said 180 something, but he is thinking that it won't go that high...either way, a giant NEPA buck

I have pictures on the girlfriend's cell phone of my step mom holding the rack...let me get them off her tonight

halfbakedi420 01-11-2010 09:23 AM

that being said, i threw it in a photo editor and took a look..what i thought were spurs and kickers do seem to be points, and cemitry is very good actually. i dont see any spurs or kickers in this big pic i got and it is most definitely gonna ride in the book...maybe there is a kicker or somethin, but blown up i cant see them
