What does this one score?

[schoolhousegrizz]

 

[Tristate]

163 6/8

 

[schoolhousegrizz]

With his big frame I think he breaks 170 for sure, my guess is 175.

 

[elkhunterUT]

Tough to tell from those pics-does he have something funky going on with his right side?

I am thinking 160”ish

 

[schoolhousegrizz]

His main beam splits on the right

 

[elkhunterUT]

I thought so-he is a very nice buck with some cool character. Definitely a shooter in a general unit and some lower end limited hunts in my mind

Thanks, he may not be as big as I think, but he looked it.

 

[BrianID]

He is bigger than 170". Big frame and long tines make his gross score higher than it may appear. I'm guessing 177"

 

[mickeyelk]

180. I'll take him

 

[yoteduster]

Hard to tell grizz..kill him this fall and measure him..I doubt you'll be disappointed

 

[Gator]

enough BOOM

 

[TKMulePacker]

hard to judge from the pics. Past the ears, brow tines, maybe some large crabs on the fronts, not sure whats going on with the right side but itd be hard for that deer to be under 170 gross. prob some deductions because of that right side but nets are for fishing. Past the ears + brow tines and I dont look much further thats a boom.

Yeah the spotting scope I had was garbage. His main beam splits on the right. He is a mainframe 3x4 but the split main beam makes him a 4x4.

even with junk optics thats a shooter unless youre in the most premier of units.

 

[dvolmer]

He’s pushing 180 gross. Take that to the bank! ?

I thought he was too, his frame is pretty big! I appreciate it! Are you winking cause you are joking though??

It is crazy there's so much discrepancy in judging his score. I hope I kill him so we can see who is right ?.

 

[yotebuster17]

If he was matching clean like the left I’d say low to mid 60’s, but that goofy right side will prob put him in the mid/upper 170’s I’d say?

 

[twopointdn]

I’m going with high 160’s. Nice buck.

 

[Houndsman77]

If he sticks around till the muzzleloader hunt I will let you know how big he is lol

?, Check your pm.

 

[Mallardsx2]

High 160's.

 

[link]

I think he just gets into the 160s.

No joke.

 

[andrew12gauge]

I think he’s probably right at 170

 

[4Weight]

With those smaller fronts, I think mid 160's.

 

[bighamr]

Maybe it’s just me Grizz, but from the pics I can’t tell what he is, looks like a 165 frame and then the extras on his right side? Have any better pics of him now?

I will look and see what I have.

 

[SDBugler]

My quick thoughts........
His driver side is a low 160's frame with the weak front.
The width could put him in the mid 160's but his mass without the velvet is weak putting him back down to a low 160's range.
His passenger side appears to have the G3 coming off the main beam instead of off the G2. Not sure if that would result in no G3 and the next long point being the G4?

Without better pics I would "guess" his gross score in the low 160 range. He won't net much. But he is a cool looking deer!!!

Nice find and thanks for sharing Griz

 

[schoolhousegrizz]

Here is a pic from the back.

 

[Tristate]

The back is my favorite view of mule deer. I'm going to adjust my previous score to 223.

Love it! ?

 

[one_dryboot]

I will let you know when I arrow him Saturday! ?

 

[BrowningRage]

I'm in the "north of 170" camp... nice buck.!

 

[schoolhousegrizz]

I will let you know when I arrow him Saturday! ?

You stay away?, good luck to you!

 

[wooldeer]

Pics make it difficult but my guess is 175-180

 

[El Gringo]

No chance that deer is in the 60’s IMO. I’m in the upper 170’s camp

Agree. He is not built like a 160 deer.

 

[bighamr]

I hope you get a chance at him. Looks like he might make the 70’s gross. It’d be nice to know.

 

[dusty]

167 3/8 's

 

[SWAGshootn]

172

 

[schoolhousegrizz]

Well I got him. @Tristate and @SDBugler nailed it. He scored 163 4/8. I thought his beams were a little longer, his inside spread was a little wider and his backs were a little taller. Still super happy and it was an awesome adventure! To make it better my daughter got a buck as well and my wife was along for the trip. I over judged him by 10 inches. Last year I underjudged the one I got by 10 inches?!

 

[Uttaxi1]

Great times, congrats on a couple of beautiful deer.

 

[elkassassin]

Nice Job There shg & Daughter!

 

[Tikka]

[bighamr]

Awesome bucks congrats!! Thanks for reporting back with the score.

 

[Gator]

That is a great hunt great memories.

 

[Butts]

Great job grizz.

 

[SDBugler]

Way to go griz!l It is one thing to locate a good buck, but a bigger accomplishment to actually target a specific buck and harvest him.

Congratulations to both of you.

 

[newguy]

Great thread,

So cool to see the summer scouting photos then have it come together. Then a successful kid as a kicker.

Probably some sleepless nights hoping he survived the other seasons,

Thanks for sharing,

Mark,
