Great site!! This is the first time I've ever tried to post pictures so if I mess this up...the following story won't have nearly the same affect.
The story: My buddy and I were hunting up in central Colorado and had been seeing some nice deer throughout the hunt. On the third morning I was on the side of one canyon and my buddy was in another. He called me on the radio and said he saw one monster and one "good" size muley a long way away. So we met up and could see the two deer feeding about 800 yards away. Even from that distance one of the bucks look big. Anyway we did the classic sneak and crawled up over a ridge in the general area where these deer had been. My buddy and I were about 30 yards apart looking for these deer. After about 15 minutes my buddy shot and he hit his deer about 100 yards away (the smaller 4x4). I started scanning looking for the other deer to run but no movement. I slowly started to circle towards the downed deer when the "BIG" deer jumped up from behind a tree and started running up the ridge..the rest is history..my buddy's deer is a beautiful 4x4 with black horns that was 23" wide and about 200 pounds..my deer was a Huge 5x3 with a 33" spread and had to weight 60-70+ pounds more than the 4x4..this is the biggest deer I've ever killed and have taken it to the taxidermist for a mount...now for the question, what's the score for this deer?? I'm in the one picture with this deer and I'm 6'3" and over 200 and those horns are a lot wider than me and my buddy in the other picture with both deer is as big or bigger than me. anyway I have no idea what the score is so maybe you guys can guess..Thanks for listening to my story and I hope to post another one next year...
