Any guesses on score? I am hearing around 200" gross but you know how that goes. I don't believe it. :roll:

I'm thinking right around 180" gross. Not much for tine length but the mass sure makes up for it.

The one I shot that muddy was referring to scored somewhere in the upper 180's gross and netted 178 and some change. I think based on the picture mine is smaller. I would guess gross low 190's but it could go 200, hard to tell from one angle. Here is mine:

Dewey - based on the pic provided I would say for sure 200"s gross

I hope you guys are right. Unfortunately I don't have any other pics with better views. Hope I hear an actual score soon but cautious because a 200" always seems to come up 20" shorter in the end.

Great buck you have there Dan. Love the TreeBark camo. 8-)

Hate to say it, but man would I like to have seen that thing get one year older... Looks young.

H1s, 3s, 4s all push 5"s... so really good mass push 40", I get roughly 82-85"s in tines conservatively, 22" beams, 20" spread = 190" not counting any junk sticker points. Might not quite go 200

Must be my screen. Thought it was some special metro tag or something.


I am with Dewey--I would have passed in order to let him get bigger. :lol:

I assume from the sign it was a public land kill?
