Hes going to have a pretty good gross score. Net he is going to have quite a few deductions.. I am not that good at this but I would guess somewhere between 132 and 140.

Shootable that what he scores. Half a freezer full of meat and tanned hide for projects and a European mount in the shop.Not to mention the campfire story and the years of memories.
P&Y 152 after deductions.

Brent,

He has lots of little buddies. I have over fifteen different bucks on the same trail camerea so far. This guy is the biggest by far but there is a real nice 8 and 10 pointer hanging around also. I will probably never see this guy in hunting hours but it sure is neat just knowing he is out there.

I know this guy will lose lots in the deductions dept but I figured he would gross upper 150's. No matter what he scores if he presents a shot I'll be taking it.

Yeah, I'd say he scores good enuf for my wall... But then again, since a #125 is REAL BIG in my neck of the woods... that boy is a certifiable monster... sure there are a few spots that have real nice deer in these parts, the price and pressure go up expotentially as well....   :scared:

Slasher,

I am very fortunate around here to have little or no competition as far as hunters go. This guy is five minutes from my house and in a no firearms discharge area. On average a mature buck of four years or older will be 275#+ in our area. The heaviest one to date for me was 325# live weight.

Well, I have a passport and the last time I checked I didn't have any Canadian warants....  :D  

I'd say whatever he scores, that be a real fine deer with a stickbow bro.

I think you're probably about right on the gross.  Net will be quite a bit lower with the common base on the left G2 and the lack of a G4 on the right.  
But if it were me I would want him just the way he is  - he's perfect!  Now just go kill him!

good main beam length 21-22"
16-17" inside spread
G1's - 7-8"
G2's - 9-10".  
the 3rd tine on the left is going to be a non typical since it protrudes from a common base as best i can tell about 8".  
G3's - 7-8 & 5-6"
G4 left might get an inch. needs to be to score.
H1 - H4's 5-3.5 total approx 34"

giving him max on all these puts him at 153" gross

now if you want to know if he is a shooter, depends on lot's of things. where i hunt, Yep!. he has a nice fat pot belly and an aged face with thick neck. probably a 3 1/2 year old. i don't know if i could pass him up if'n he were to give me a shot.

I don't think he will quite go that high. Probably 138 or so... Hard to judge a picture.

He's missing his G4 on the right side, I'd pass and wait for a BIG one.


Yeah....right.  :biglaugh:
