What would he score?

ABolt · Mar 14, 2014

Alright guys I shot this buck in 2006 in Cali. Never had him scored but have always been curious. I know he wont score well but his mass is amazing. What do you think?

BeDawg · Mar 14, 2014

Sweet buck! that thing is unique. Probably won't score well but would be a trophy in any of our eyes. If I had to guess, 165. Please get him scored and let us know!

Heavy sweet 150.

That buck is cooler than any 160 Class buck! Mass!

LAST EDITED ON Mar-15-14 AT 02:59AM (MST)[p]With all that crazy mass and nice frame he certainly has that zing factor, as nice a Cali buck as i've seen for a good while.

Is that a Muley, a Blacktail, or a cross buck? It would help a lot to know what kind of deer, how big the body was, to guess a close score.

Hey, Thanks fer putting this guy up!!!

Thanks for the replies! He would definitely be a cross. This was a G37 buck. Shot him on Anderson Flat, less than a mile outside of camp after lunch getting ready to drive back up to the top to look for a nice buck! He was looking back at my dad and me and I shot him in the back of his neck as he was trying to sneak into the brush. Glad I didn't get buck fever, because I didn't have much of a kill shot!

sageadvice · Mar 14, 2014

ABolt, i don't want to give you my guess as to what his score might be. This kind of buck is truly exceptional, much more about how unusual it is to ever even see one of it's like, let alone come buy such a animal with proper tag in hand and a killing shot.

Though i'm one who talks "scores" often and has for many years, this particular deer, IMO, earns the moniker "Monster" as rightly as a Buck that sits it's place squarely within the Book of Records.

+1 Sage. There are some bucks that shouldn't be scored.
Awesome, massive buck. Congrats!

Massive! That buck deserves to be on the Wheaties breakfast of champions cereal box.

That is a great buck, He has that Monster look, score wouldn't matter to me because he has all the Bling for me. If you told some-one he scored 160 they wouldn't all they would think he wasn't a BIG one, That mass is super on him and he is a BIG one.

That is a true monster buck, he scores very well in "WOW factor.

ABolt · Mar 15, 2014

I have know idea on the score, but the mass on that buck is amazing!! That deer has the wow factor to it.

mmwb · Mar 15, 2014

Sweet buck. He has the wow factor and that is better than any number. Bucks like that make me glad I don't care about score.

darter · Mar 15, 2014

That is one awesome deer

LAST EDITED ON Mar-16-14 AT 09:46PM (MST)[p]I couldn't even venture a good guess with all that mass. One thing I know, he's beautiful!
Sage has it right, that buck qualifies as a bonified MONSTER!
Congratulations on a buck of a lifetime!

That buck is awesome. Truly phenomenal mass! I'll say he's mid-150's, but as others have said, score is just a number. That buck is truly exceptional.
