jcmulies,

186, NICE! no problem here with that score. Probably was one smart ol buck. What's he got for an outside spread? i'm guessing about 25 1/2"

 

[jcmuleys]

His outside spread was 23 1/2" After deductions he scored 181 2/8 He had 24 inch mainbeams.

Thanks! perfect example how a buck don't gotta be real wide to be a toad. That's a super buck right there, hope he had many times, passed on those genetics.

Thats a shame right there, its alot nicer walking up on a set of sheds side by side knowing he's still alive and spreading his good genetics as aposed to finding him dead,although it is still pretty cool finding a buck of that class.

Yea I would have rather had the sheds myself. Hopefully he did his job as a dominate buck. The interesting thing is that I found a set of sheds that were from the same area that have the start of the same kickers and same narrow heavy horns like this buck. We have a lot of 3 points here so it is nice to see a few good four point typical framed deer.
