will he make 130?

From: XMan

Hi George,

I think he will fall short of 130, nice buck but probably just a tad short of making P&Y. Good luck this season.

For 10 pointers......take length of G4, multiply by 10 and add 100 to get a "rough idea" on score. Clearly there is some variations (mass, width, etc) that are not taken into acount....but it will get you close. Just one of the many things I have learned on this site!

For this deer.....somewhere around 130-140

we got a 130 gross min on our lease,,, I think 130 isn

From: Jack Harris

I do think he will gross somewhere around 134 plus or minus 5", and P&Y will punish him for dare having a shorter g4 on his left side and net him down to being very close to the P&Y minimum... But hey - if he excites you shoot him! If that is in NJ, he not getting a pass by me... Kansas,Iowa, - yeah MAYBE.

Also - could be camera angle but something look wrong with his front leg on right side and he looks a little thin for this time of year... If he is injured, no question take him out before a coyote does.

I would say you'll be real close for 130. I think a little short.

I would let this bad boy walk if it was on my land he will be a 145-155 next year sometimes if you can just wait one more year like with this 2 year old he will be a dandy next year at 3-4 years old, good luck

Sub 130 I'm going to go with 126. I've got one on the wall I arrowed when I was 16 that is nearly identical.

From: greg simon

Over 130, and that deer is not a 2 year old.

From: wilbur

Yes he will make 130". That being said he looks to be a young deer and if you can lay off the trigger he may blow up next year.

Either way have fun and don't get too wrapped up in scores.

From: shootist_4

Yes, he grosses over 130 (slightly).

From: Genesis

It will take a good 3 1/2 yo to "add a 100" as a general rule.

That bucks frame is closer to 90.

126

That 2nd picture tells the truth more than the 1st. The 1st picture is a glamour shot and I like many have been fooled by those because we want to believe it's a lot bigger.

He's a nice buck and I would shoot him in most instances.

I think he's between 125-130. I'd be surprised if he's much over 130".

From: Duke

To answer your question, yes. 134"

From: milnrick

I think Genesis has him dead on, very nice 3 1/2 year old, may push 125.
