No joking here, I held this rack in my hands...
Well I'll be dipped in doo doo. Small world. :D

Is it getting mounted at Dave Sorber's? I was talking to him on Saturday and he said he got a really big one in. I hadn't seen the picture at the general store yet when I talked to him, though.

Did you see the 12 pointer that Randy shot on top of Red Rock? That was hanging in the general store a couple of weeks ago. It was the one that won the Suburban News buck pool but the picture in the paper didn't do it justice.

early tape said 180 something,

Who ever laid tape to this buck and came up with that number please send me their info. I have a couple deer I need this guy to score.

I'm not being a smart arse, but from the picture that was provided, I don't see anything over 160"

On all the score threads, I see folks guessing from 115" to 150" on the same buck. :D

HAHAHA, pics forthcoming from the GF...I did here about that buck Randy got, Dad is buddies with him...that was a hog too!

Randy turned down the free taxidermy of that buck, too. I would get a chipmunk mounted if it were free :D

great deer...but i wouldnt say booner

excalibur43 01-12-2010 11:13 AM

I would guess, no. I think he is a high 150"s to low 160"s gross. He's a heck of a nice buck though, and I would shoot him anyday!!

slim09 01-12-2010 01:54 PM

i think 160 - 163, the way the horns are leaning toward the picture i think make him look a little bigger than he really is. that said i would drop him w/o thinking about the score!!!

BarnesX.308 01-13-2010 03:56 AM

I was looking at it and doing some estimates and it looks like it's about 170 gross. Side-side deductions would probably bring it down to the low 160s. Then, some abnormals would bring it to the high 150s-160 net. But I think it will tally 170 gross inches.

Look closely at the mass. It's going to have some nice H measurements.
