These antlers are owned by a friend of mine. His grandfather L.B. Sturgis shot the deer in the 1950's in Idaho. He found them in his grandfathers attic after he had died. He didnt know about them until then so he never got to ask his grandfather about the hunting trip.

The outside spread is 30.5 inches. What would be a ballpark gross and net score for this rack.

I would have never guessed the outside spread at 30.5" but I'll take your word for it...
Bearman guess looks good. I would got the buck going about 185" gross... with at least 10" of deductions for a net score... 175"
Beautiful color in those antlers, I would get it mounted for sure!!! Thanks for sharing...
 
With his spread at 31, his main beams and g3s put him way up there. I agree around 200 gross as well. Beautiful deer, needs to be mounted for sure!

It looks pretty "freakin" big to me. Kind of funky wavey. I'll be bold (compared to a field of low scores) and guess about 205 gross and 192 net. So I am guessing net Book. I don't see it listed in the Idaho books though, at least under that name. Still, incredible tine length, though not much browtine for net score and average-good mass, plus some obvious cheaters. Hmmm - almost talked myself out of it with that last sentence.
 
LAST EDITED ON Oct-08-08 AT 07:46PM (MST)[p]Pretty deer with a unique shape. Too bad he never got to talk to his grandpa about it.
 
Ehh, I guess I gotta go higher on the gross if I think it goes 192 net. With about 8 inches of visible cheaters or so alone,and 3-4 inches in symmetry, maybe about 212 gross.
 
Very nice buck with a unique shape. Huge fronts, great G-3's, good G-2's, a little trash- I'm saying around 193 gross.
