trohyhuntr, not to be a jerk...but what the h#ll are you looking at to come up with a 130-135 score? Saskbucks deer even with the deductions is more than 130 class buck, he even mentioned the score of 162. Am I missing something here? Either that or dude you need to brush up on your scoring/judging abilities without a tape and calculator!

BTW, here we talk/assume gross unless it is a contender for the book, then it is official measurements that count not guessing or the home jobs.

skeeter i understand what you are saying but if you are talking about the fisrt two pictures in the beginning of this post im not lost either, looking at mass and tine length and spread, not to cut him down

(Saskbucks reply, your infering his tape is misguided???)

trophyhuntr, I can only assume your trying to guess the net. Let me remind you that our bigger bodied deer don't show there spread like a southern deer. I have seen a lot of 160 & up class deer with under 18" spread up here,while nice it ain't all the score. I agree his mass ain't huge but I would peg him 14-15" per side which is pretty close to average for a mature whitetail. You forgot to mention beam size, which is another important factor to sizing up a deer!

Here are a few tips for all the members in judging deer in pics or on the hoof(ones I find that are very helpful and easy)...beam length to the nose you got 24-25" and the best of all is eye to nose is 9" place your g's(tines) in that spot and determine what your looking at.

I would love to see some measurement on that deer because the picture does him no justice if he scores 162
