I'd say around 140. It's hard to say without a side picture, though.

Mid to high 140's. If you were in my area I'd say you might as well get him before somebody else does. You can always watch the others grow.

OK guys, try this.  Use the picture as a ref.  This is a north TX deer whic could be bigger then the S. Texas deer.... that being said:

1.  Deers ears are about 6" long from where
    they meet the head..

2. The eye socket on a mature deer is
   roughly 1.25" across

These are solid measurements.... This deer is likely a bit smaller in body size due to genetics so these measurements should "give" him a bit.

Now go back to the pic and take a piece of paper, put it up on the pic and mark off the length of HIS RIGHT ear. Thats 6" now go for your measurements.  The mass looks to be at 1.25-1.50 at the bases and seems to go out gradually..  

I figured his inside spread at between 18 and 20"
But as TJ said he looks like a 9pt.  I would like to see his right beam...

Mike, if he is giving you problems like eating your plants and such, just give me a call and I will come up and rid you of the problem!

That is a bruiser for sure!

he's a nice one, but lacks mass to make 150's . id say 145. he has real good length on everything. keep an eye on that one,next year he'll ad mass id bet.

He'd likely gross in the 140's. Great looking deer.

I'll say Mike is on at 150, That is my origonal take and He sees the deer up close and personal so it seems like a safe bet. final answer 150. Ish

He sure is a beaut.

God bless you all, Steve

I would love to provide him a new home in my freezer and on my wall. Very good deer.
