For fun I figured I would post this buck up and see what everybody thought he would score. My buddy killed him the first day of the archery hunt so I do have the real score. I will give it a few days to see what everyone thinks.

I killed a buck that scored 173, this buck looks a little narrower but possibly longer tines.

I'll go with 175"
 
174

180

You're an old-timer if you can remember when setting the world on fire was a figure of speech.
 
Great buck but he is no where close to 180. I would say high 160's MAYBE low 170's. Heck of a buck though especially with archery gear.

Here I will post a couple more pic of him after we killed him and see if this changes any of your anwsers.

My buddy with his buck.

I promised Zeke I'd stick with my first incorrect answer but if I didn't I'd probably add a 1/2 doz to my first incorrect answer!
 
original guess was 174
His main beams look longer in your new picture i'll bump it to 180.
 
I would like to retract my earlier score please and submit a new one (-:

I am now going to say 184". Better angle showing off the size of his frame and main beams. Heck of a buck.

LOL Gotthefever, I was laughing at your original post when you put it up.

There are many things that would be nice to wish for or say but then I would be just like him.
 
Seriously, the kill pic gives some dimension to that big boy. I'd say I was at least 15" short. He's gotta be 182"

Well boys we got some grade "A" scorers on here. Alot of you were real close good job, and some were right on. He scored 185 on the dot.

The reason I didnt give the kill pic right away is cause I knew it would be easier to score him with somthing to compare him to. But in the field you usually dont have that luxury so I thought it would be a perfect "score the buck post"

Here are his dimensions.
R L INSIDE SPREAD
M 24 23 19.5
G1 2.5 2.5
G2 17 17
G3 10 10
G4 13 10

M1 5.5 5.5
M2 5 5
M3 4 4
M4 3.75 3.75
T 84.75 + 80.75 + 19.5= 185

Just for comparison, here is my buddy's 185" buck and jgilroys1's 192" book cliff's buck from the "book cliff's archery" post side by side.

LAST EDITED ON Sep-02-14 AT 10:34PM (MST)[p]Jake, looks to me like your buddy's 185 buck's skull plate got cut kind of skimpy. No?

I've cut some of mine kinda thin but the last few looked like they came off a elk's head. :)

Whatever cmbbulldog gets, i want a third of... lol

>189.......Easy Zeke I'm stickin on this
>1!


Haha ok DW. I think you're pretty good with that guess too. I'll read on to see what he actually scores....if posted already.
 
That was fun Jake. I appreciate you letting us take a second stab at the score. I would have been eating some real crow had you not!
