What would he score? (The one that got away)

Hunted this buck but could not make it happen. I think he’s a pretty good buck for the unit. I did shoot some pictures and video of him at least. I think he’s a younger buck that could really be something in a year or two.

My guess is right about 170”. He’s lacking mass and width but just a beautiful typical that is going to haunt me for awhile. Perfectly symmetrical (minus sticker and tiny inline on the right) with eye guards.

You're probably pretty close on score. Tough break, but maybe next year.?!
He’s got a tough few months of rifle seasons to survive but with some luck I may look for him if I can get the tag again.

I watched him go from calm and feeding with his buddies, started acting a bit odd, then stripped his velvet and ran like he’s lost his mind for a bout a mile through thick brush never to been seen again. Hopefully he stays in the thick stuff and comes back next year.
 
Pictures are a little fuzzy, but I think he is better than you think. So in a year or two he might become that mega buck.
 
Great looking buck that probably scores better than you‘re thinking. I think he’ll break 170 with 10 to spare.
