I harvested this deer during Utah's archery hunt this past season. I just had an official Pope & Young score done so lets see how good you guys and gals are. The winner will receive a free Wasatch Front Muleys T-shirt and a calendar. Lets go for the gross score, not net.

early to bed, early to rise, hunt like hell and make up lies!
 
35" wide and 184 7/8". Just a guess.

Michael~All Gods creatures welcome... right next to the mashed potatoes and gravy.
 
32 inches wide. Gross Score: 189 5/8

Congrats again on an awesome buck. I was glad I got to see him a couple of times before you let the air out of him. :)

Welcome wfm, superb buck & thanks for the contest.
eelgrass & me think your Phil Mickelsen incognito.
I'll guess 204
 
Looks like lots of close guesses. I'd say 193 and 3/8. That's what I thought before I read everyone else's scores, so I'm "sticking with it."
 
LAST EDITED ON Dec-13-05 AT 09:07PM (MST)[p]That's a great buck! Nice job! No wonder I couldn't find him during the rut... My guess, 188 2/3 gross. Oh and hey boys, what's up with the math skills eh? 2/8, 4/8? (1/4, 1/2) Good stuff!
 
196 7/8 and I'll agree with eelgrass and B_F_E the hunter is Phil Mickelson. I have been a fan of yours for years.
 
polar bear are our guesses really that close? we just might be too good for our own good :)

His main beams are 22 5/8" so therefore I only get a spread credit of 22 5/8". The gross score is a even number if this helps at all. He is not 200 or over.
 
What a year the PGA Championship and a buck like that. 194. Congratulations.
 
205 4/8

THATS GROSS!!!

THE PICTURE IS MAKING ME SICK!!!

NICE BUCK!!!

THE ONLY bobcat THINKING THAT MIGHT BE THE NOMADS BUCKS GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GRANDAD!!!
 
186" - Awwesome buck, no matter what he scores.

Keep the Sun at Your Back and the Wind in Your Face
 
We got a winner a 174 gross. Nice job KLL. Pm me your location and we will send out your winnings.
 
My guess would be 191 6/8. That's just what came to mind. :)

What a stud of a buck man! He's dead meat no matter where I'm huntin'! CONGRATULATIONS!

HOLLY FREAKN $#&%(!! I'm done guessing and from now on I'm hiring a guide for all my hunts! :)

How wide is the thing. Oh wait, let me guess... 24" outside?

His outside spread was 32" and shrunk to 31 7/8". I thought all along he was low 180's. I taped him myself and got a gross of 175 5/8". I was hoping I was wrong, but the official scorer taped him at 174 gross and 171 5/8" net. No matter the score he is still a good buck to me. Thanks for all kind words and playing the game. I will post another buck real soon.
 
Thats not just a "good" buck Dustin... thats an OUTSTANDING buck. 32 inches wide?!?! Just a smoker man. Seeing the video you have of him really put him into perspective for me.. He was just awesome on hoof.. Big time congrats on a P&Y buck thats over 30 wide man.. A milestone for sure.

never would have guessed it, I was thinking 191 all along, just goest to show you how big of deer it really takes to make 190 class
 
I would have to say in the neighborhood of 201 7/8's ". That is a great buck, no matter what the score.
 
Definately a great buck regardless of the score. With width like that you gotta just throw the score out the window. Congrats on one Hell of a Buck!!!!

It is quite something to see the range of guesses. I know full well that scoring photos ain't easy but some of you were WAYYYY off. :) The mains are your first hint. Short mains and you need a ton of mass and Super Awesome Backs and Big eyeguards to get a buck to go over 190. All that width doesn't do that buck justice in the score as he gets a spread credit of his short mains. Mass is average. G4's are average. G1's are short. Thus the lower than expected score.
 
You hit it right on the head. Width does not mean jack, unless you have some long tines to go along with it. One thing width does do it gets the old heart just a thumpin. After I hit this guy and he ran away he looked twice as wide as he is.
 
I'll tell ya what, I LOVE nice wide bucks. I could care less what they score cuz they are just flat pretty. Especially in velvet. They is one pretty buck bro.... congrats!!!
