What do you think this one will Score??

This buck is still roaming the woods of Southern IL. Anyone want to guess his score?

Good GAWD!

It's hard to guess when the rack makes the ground look small! I would have to "ground check" that one! :)

Guessing though, I'd say a solid 170+

Wow, look at that mass. I'd say it should at least qualify as a booner

Il. has big body deer and that rack is still huge! I would fall out of the tree if I ever saw a buck like that.

Somewhere between 155 and 160, awesome for an 8 point :clap: Great spread too!

150's - 160's awe come'on??

I would guess 190"+ and if he is still around this year, probably 200"+. Hey HuntCam Hunter, what are the IL. hunters saying that filmed him, what is their rough score -- any idea's?

I can't tell for all those corn stalks blocking my view....

....wait, those are on his head! :eek:

164 7/8 :p :rolleyes:
 
180+

This photo was taken off a video taken in January 2004. I've been told he's been estimated at 180. Trail camera photos of him this year estimate he's pushing 195+. :speechles

Mulitiple Outdoor TV shows are hunting this buck this year trying to capture him on video again, both before and after the shot. I've got a couple of those folks hunting him using our HuntCam and I'm praying that they get the footage!!

Thanks HuntCam

I hope it works out for you, that buck is a beast for sure! the 180"+ is more like it, just didn't see how he could only be in the 155" - 170" range. This buck has it all, spread, m**** tine length including tall brow tines too....

Scoring:
Inside spread = 23
Beams at 25" =50
G1's at 8" = 16
G2's at 12" & 10" = 22
G3's at 10" = 20
5" 1st circ = 10
6 more circ at 4" = 24

Gross score = 165

He's a massive deer but without G4's it's tough to make book. I may be off an inch here or there, but he'll have a hard time hitting 190. ;)

I'm saying 175 -180 can't tell if he's 8 or 9 but 21"-24" wide 24" mains good tine length and mass.
