25” wide without the velvet

I’d go with gross for non-typical bucks. Count every bit of antler on freaky bucks. If we’re talking typical bucks, symmetry is cool so I go with net score.

Short main beams and inside spread will hurt. Pretty solid tine length and mass w/eye guards. I’d put him right at 160.

That is a nice looking ram!! Congrats

The blue represents pro wolf counties The blue represents pro weed counties

Nice work. Congrats!! Thanks for sharing the cool pics

The tag cuts will really mess with the draw odds. It will take a couple seasons just to see how it turns out in some areas. Hope for a quick rebound in numbers and some tag increases or 6 points won’t get you much. It will take 9 or 10 in the decent public land units.

No one out west calls them brow tines. They are eye guards!

elks96, if you weren’t a recent Colorado transplant your words might have some credit. I guess you’ve changed your Colorado plates by now

Congrats! Perfect first buck. Reminds me of mine.

Are they Wyoming bucks? Did you kill them as a Non Resident?

Almighty “R” elks96, maybe you’ll start killing some decent bucks once you’ve lived in Wyoming for a few years.

I agree, my guess is high 150’s.

Or lower mule deer to 160. No contest 180 mule deer

Good point! Seems like 10-15 years into limited quota areas there are a lot of huge 3x3’s, wierd forkies and management type bucks. Areas with balanced harvest of all types of bucks seems to hold a population of all types of bucks. Late hunts also seem to cause a decrease in large quality bucks...

I bet most of the Non-Residents commenting here have hunted G and H longer than elks96 has been a WY resident.

That is awesome! Very cool that we got to guess on the score and then you go out and kill him. Great buck!! Congrats

My first thought was high 70’s. I’ll put him at 77

Nice job! Heard they were hard to come by 1st season up there. Even harder 2nd season I guess. Congrats!!

plus 1 on the spindly bases. “fro” looks wierd, tiny ear and pedicle gap too wide. Taxi fake (mule deer antlers, blacktail cape) is my guess!

That’s a stud. Looks like 160#

I want to hunt

I have some A zone bucks patterned!

Looks like Tehema county portion of C4.

Just checked. Deer apps gone. Sheep, elk, antelope pending.

Great thread!! Had many good times with my Dad and hunting partner over the years. Here’s a pic from my favorite hunt and one from the same spot twenty years prior.

This great photo was shared in the thread called, "Dad's Trophies Photo Thread" in the General Hunting Forum.

Dang, sarcasm withdrawn! Good luck in the draw! Didn’t realize such good tags are getting to the bottom of max point pool.

Not many guys know about the special early draw. Way better odds

Tough going away with ears tucked back, but figured 32” plus 6” of matching cheaters. Put him about 38” outside

Not sure what I was thinking, just realized pork(wild pig) should probably be cooked. Thanks though. I’ll try it with some deer or elk.

Gadjet, Do you think bulk pork sausage would work? Or too much fat

Proposed

Dang, that looks good! I bet it won’t last long. Is that made from ground or sliced strips?

Apply separately. 1 X5b and 1 East Lassen muzzy. If you get lucky, make two trips. If you don’t both draw, you’ll have a good idea what to do next year
