How wide? Would you shoot an arrow at one like this?

I have always understood that a mature deer's eartips are 22 inches wide. I would say this guy is about 3 to 4 inches wider that his ears on each side. So, I would venture a guess at 28-30 inches outside spread. I would be very happy to arrow this buck!
 
I have his slightly bigger brother on my wall...

I'd shoot him. He looks like 27" wide and would score about 167"

Unless he's going in Muley Crazy, then he's a 190" buck... I kid I kid :)

Agree. 26-27 and I' let him go for a year. Might not make it another year though because he's a nice buck.
 
He won't break 27 inches outside unless measured to the tip of his tail, but I would shoot him in a heartbeat. I hope someone does. Good luck.
 
26 1/2", though i have several similar, i'd have a hard time passing that guy up.

SO many people get caught up in the width or the score. This buck is a gorgeous looking deer. He is damn near 100% symmetrical and has some great fronts on him.. he definitely has that great wall appeal look. I would go after him in a heart beat.
 
SnkyHuntr, +1, good post but i have a question for you. Would you feel the same way if you already had 6-8 similar or bigger bucks on the wall and you knew there were better bucks around?

Some guys don't need another really nice buck and are looking for something truly special.
