Great buck and congrats. A trophy to be very proud of. Posting the official score sheet really gives an idea of what a true B&C animal looks like.

I was curious about what your buck would actually score, after drying. Some experienced scorers tell me that massive bucks shrink a lot, more so than tall bucks, but no one can tell me why. Thanks for sharing with us.

I am sitting on a very big NM pronghorn buck with huge mass, and I have five weeks to go before I can get it officially scored. Your buck gives me an idea of what to expect.

I have re-measured the buck each week, and it is shrinking a lot. Oh well.

Thanks for the good words i hope you score great by far this is not the biggest lope in the world but it is something to be proud of and it shows how hard it is to judge these animals in the field i am sure this buck had been passed up a time or two and i think what makes this buck look smaller than he is is his head it was huge like window licker huge just goes to show good glass is way worth it
