Score this deer
Whitetail Deer

In light of killing time in the off season, or at least until shed season here is one of my Ohio deer.
Waiting on the upside down angle before I make my declaration
Well, try a side view. All of your pics are basically the same when it comes to judging.
Had my brother send me more.
176" gross 169" net
Scenario#1---I don't gun hunt. Scenario #2.--- If I have a crack at him during bow season, I'd shoot if I had an ethical shot at him. The only reason my butt would hurt would be because I forgot my seat pad for my tree stand.
T-Roy is darn close.
My math says 175 gross, 169 net. Great buck!
Short brows, short G2. He gets a pass.
JUST KIDDING.
167
Troy, your about dead nuts. I was referencing another thread. Besides my butt sweats something fierce when use a pad.
I honestly gasped when I thought he was a 9pt, but I've since kicked the "trophy" pressure and matured to learn to enjoy my time afield.
I shot this deer twice though he was dead on his feet the first shot. First shot was maybe 10yds, my Mathews with tarantula silencers was deadly quiet.
I would think he nets around 165"s. Mass is always too tough to really be super accurate when judgeing a picture! Scooby
I have about 145" net unless there is more mass there than I think.
I would shoot him, what a great buck! I would also long arm a picture, pose with a crossbow and post it here on Bowsite. I would be sure to use "Archery Booner" in the title. Then I would sit back and LMAO at the meltdown!
So what did he score, net and gross?
Good for you "kicking the trophy pressure and enjoying your time afield"!
That's what it's all about!
Actually T-roy nailed it. I confused his post w/ the one below it.
176 gross and 169 net. They guy who scored it taped it a few times trying to find the last few 8ths to make it a booner. I shot this deer the year after I landed my 204" gross typical.
Great buck- still scores 4x better than the old one posted by that guy who always says "114".
Let's see a picture of the 204"
Here is a photo I took when your deer was getting scored at the OH Deer and Turkey Expo
I still have the issue of OH Game & Fish magazine that made the cover. I will have to dig that out sometime
Oh wow! That's Ed Waite Jr, great guy, loves taping deer. He has a few books out called "wall hangers".
What a stud! Both for that matter
