Any one within 3" of the gross score yet. The closest guess so far is off by roughly 15 inches.
I have nothing clever to put here.

The quilt stand. NE corner of the property. I am sure for a Model 70 Super Grade or Two Logan will show you the way and even help you dig me up.

My guess is 154 gross. I don't see it being as high as previous guess but i really dont know how to adjust for the incredible mass it has. Any way you look at it, this rack of antlers is a unique trophy with it's incredible mass. Lots of side to side deductions and subtraction of abnormal points to arrive at it's NET Score. It was no doubt carried by a brute of a northern boreal forest whitetail. It's what Alberta outfitters would refer to as a "Gagger" or a "Klunker". It proves my earlier point in the "Security camera buck" thread that people tend to over estimate the score of a rack by a lot. I'll freely admit that I was so overwhelmed by the mass of this rack that my mind couldn't compute a coherent score so I didn't venture a guess. I know I'd go to into instant hyper-ventilation if I saw that rack coming at me in the woods. w

Walleyed, I thought your biggest peave was the AGE of the deer not the score of the antlers.( "security camera buck") Correct me if I'm wrong but you thought that deer was 2 1/2 . You are wrong this time, jbyrd63. I said it didn't score in at 160" Net, and that It wasn't a old deer. You thought It was older than I did. We still don't know whose right as nobody has the deer's rack in their hands to score it yet. Here's hoping snowy performs a mercy killing and we get that old geezer ("security camera buck") on a scale, and a tape on his antlers, and we might as well get a wildlife biologist to age his jawbone by tooth wear so we can put the mystery to rest. BTW, don't you have some BIG 10 Fans to torment ? w
