Default Target Buck

Checked my cam this morning, had 818 pictures mostly does and fawns, with a few bucks of typical size for this area, but this buck was on it the last two nights, well above the average size for this area.....GOD willing I score on him!!!

Any idea on his score and weight?

I say roughly 115" cause the lack of mass, with a spread of 22", 150 pounds

I think you will be surprised what he will score. I would give him atlest 125. It looks like in the picture he has completely lost his velvet. They are not even close to loosing it here in KY yet. I was able to get in the stand saturday and saw a nice 7 that will be a good deer next year and he was still rounded on the ends. This is actually pretty typical. Its not odd to kill a velvet but well into september here. Not sure why that is though.

I think you're underestimating him as well, 120-125 is more likely.

122.5 was the score given by BuckScore.com, with a 22" spread.....not sure how accurate BuckScore is
