131 net.
They always look bigger when they are headed away.
Long main beams & G-2's, G-3's on that sucker.
Nice 4 X 4 either way.

I don't know how well you guys bone out your deer, but I'll bet I can get closer to 75#. From talking to Midwest hunters visiting Alaska, I was surprised to hear how few (if any) cut out the rib meat, etc.. hardly pays on does and young bucks , not much there. on a older buck there is more we shoot what shows up , more tags than you can fill or haver freezer space for 65 was a just a guess at finished , all trimmed and bagged I seldom get huge deer nor have I weighed any of them. with 8 of us at deer camp this year we should have 32 tags to fill in weekend and I am only good for cutting up 3 a night I also hunt most often where the local population is isolated and stunted from inbreeding so I may not have the best sense of weight
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Nice deer. Congrats to your brother.
This is a good lesson on why trail cam pictures can be deceiving without multiple angles and a frame of reference. I would have said 150's from the trailcam photo and high 120's from the still shot.

Some real close guesses, good job guys
Swamp and roztocki were closest
It scored 127" yesterday Got a pic of the score sheet or actual measurements? Just want to see where my guesses were off. Probably on the main beams and maybe tine length. We’ve had some deer we swore were low 120’s based on camera pics but realized in person they were closer to 140’s. One 8 I shot a couple years ago was down on the list just because he was 4.5 and still an 8pt. I saw him from 350 yards heading towards me and text my son he was coming in. As he kept getting closer I kept texting my son he’s bigger than we thought. At 150 I text him that we're going to be scoring him soon, lol. My son kept texting back, don’t shoot him he’s not 140. I told him he wasn’t there and don’t go by pics. He was 142 6/8. He did have a kicker off the back and 2” extra beam. On the other end of the spectrum my son had a deer everyone who saw the pics said 140ish. Even I was fooled by the pics. His wife shot the deer and I climbed down early to go see this deer. When I got to his house and looked in the back of the truck, I asked where it was because that deer in the back of the truck wouldn’t go 120, lol. They were so hyped based on pics that when they saw the deer, they saw what they wanted to see. Of course my DIL was thrilled, but my son realized he had grossly miscalculated. Other than an actual shed or sheds to score, it’s all a guess until he’s in hand.
