How big is this buck?

[elkhunterUT]

What are your thoughts on this buck's score? He is a straight 4 point and very symmetrical.

 

[sxar308]

I would guess 170-175. Nice buck!

 

[WhiteMooseTaxidermy]

Shooter in my book regardless of score. I'm less of a trash guy.

 

[huskyhunter25]

a solid 180-185 buck. either way no one would pass him up.

 

[eldorado]

Probably somewhere around 175". Would take him in a heartbeat.

That deer is very close to 190.

 

[marley]

I would say 188. A smoker in just about any unit.

 

[Cheater]

185" +/- a couple inches.

 

[elkster9]

160"-165"

 

[Dreamin_of_elk]

If you don't mind me asking what State is he in? I have pics of a deer that looks identical

 

[OldJake]

185-190" Dandy Buck!

 

[Big_DD]

Around 185.

 

[monstermuleyhunter]

I do think this buck is a shooter however I wouldnt say anywhere near 190....closer to 170. I am a pp hunter (patient & picky) and would have a touch time not letting an arrow fly! Very good looking dear.

This is a Utah buck - my Dad had him at 20 yards with no tag, only the camera My Brother-in-law and his Dad still have tags so hopefully they can find this buck again.

I really think this buck is closer to 190 than 170. Awesome eye guards, great main beam length, great mass, and decent tine length.

Other thoughts on score? - keep em coming.

Id say an easy 180 or better id have a hard time not letting an arrow fly on him !

 

[BrowningRage]

Make this a contest... Whoever gets closest, gets the GPS coordinates to hunt there next year...!!

He's bigger than my 171" buck by a mile.. I'd say he's a solid 186 2/8"

I'd say 188ish give or take. Gorgeous buck def. a shoot first score later. Good luck on stickin him

 

[mmwb]

IDK the score, though he appears comparable to a buck I shot that most seem to think is mid 180s. He's a great example of muley buck. I'd shoot him in a heartbeat!

 

[sageadvice]

I think he's 180 class tops, can't see nowhere near 190.

Dandy though!!

183" is my best geuss. They always look a little bigger in velvet. Beautiful typical buck. I hope you guys can find him again.

 

[Tikka]

He's a 185" buck no hesitation I'd let the air out!!!!!

 

[nontypical]

I guarantee you that buck will flirt with 190.

LAST EDITED ON Aug-31-12 AT 10:02AM (MST)[p]i got aroud 180. great buck, score has nothing on that buck! dont worry about the score he is a shooter on 95% of the units in the west. only a few units id consider passin him on. such as the pauns and henrys etc

 

[borntohunt]

Sure is a pretty buck, I think almost anyone would be happy to place his tag on that deer.

If you saw that buck while archery hunting the Paunsaugunt, you better let an arrow fly!

Those pics from the back make him look like a 190's buck, but based off the front pic, I say he's around 180.

 

[7thgenmt]

180-190 killer buck

 

[BCBOY]

Looks like a solid 180 buck to me. I don't think he's even close to flirting with 190 but still a cranker buck in most areas.

 

[Bonehead13]

Great buck and photos. I would definitely say high 180's closer to 190.

 

[betterluckythangood]

closer to 170 I'd say

 

[swbuckmaster]

Better mass then a 170 buck too short of tines for a 190 buck. So somewhere inbetween
