Heavy Idaho buck, score...

huntindad4 · Oct 29, 2020

......the landing.

BRUIN4L · Oct 29, 2020

If that log is part of his mainbeam he's gonna be a B&C buck!

hunt30 · Oct 29, 2020

Looks like he came down with some momentum. I’ll guess 161

Pretty steep, he went about 70 yards downhill, would have went another bit without the tree stopping him.

I haven't scored him yet, but you are likely close.

twdjr · Oct 29, 2020

Congrats!

huntindad4 · Oct 29, 2020

I gave him a 9.5 for the dramatic tumble and landing....

Killed him on public land in a general tag. We ate 4 other tags. It was a tough year for us.

Ran a tape on him today and he came out better than I thought. Might as well let others take a shot as well.

Outside spread is 23".

I will post score and pic of my scoresheet later.

bonepicker · Oct 29, 2020

Very nice! Glad he didn't break anything on the way down! Yep I'm saying 165ish, great buck all around, very symmetrical!

He should scare the heck out of 170, maybe even inch it upward a notch or two.
Beautiful buck!?

Bocephus · Oct 30, 2020

Handsome buck. 168 3/8

DarkTimber · Oct 30, 2020

That's a great buck. I'd guess around 175.

ortegageno · Oct 30, 2020

Nice buck. Congrats

Deepcolor · Oct 30, 2020

172”

Buckhunter1955 · Oct 30, 2020

He's an A+, FORGET WHAT HE SCORES!

hunt30 · Oct 30, 2020

He looks a little better right side up and untangled from the tree. I think I shorted him a little on his beams and didn’t catch the extra at his bases. I think he’s a whisper under 170

BCnimrod · Oct 30, 2020

173.5???????

Haha, yeah he cleaned up pretty good.

Gator · Oct 30, 2020

Houndsman77 · Oct 30, 2020

I would put him at 167

RSC68 · Oct 30, 2020

Who cares. He's a nice mature heavy horned buck.

dihardhunter · Oct 30, 2020

176, I'm staring at one on the wall beside me that looks identical except your buck's forks are a little stronger + couple inches more out of the eyeguards. Puts him 9" over this one at 167.

Wiszard · Oct 30, 2020

I'd say closer to 175 than 165.....congrats!

wapitiman · Oct 30, 2020

Great buck

Vanilla · Oct 30, 2020

He’s heavy. 176-178 ish.

Congrats on a great buck!

Homer · Oct 30, 2020

I'd say closer to 165 than 175.....congrats

goldhunter · Oct 31, 2020

170, with the mass he's a great one

Neverdrawn · Oct 31, 2020

That's the epitome of a classic 4 point muley, what a beautiful buck! Congrats! All I'd care score wise is that you scored on harvesting a stud.

mlycrzy · Oct 31, 2020

Solid buck. I’d say high 160’s

Ranger1 · Oct 31, 2020

Awesome buck.

pushin_30 · Oct 31, 2020

JakeH · Oct 31, 2020

First initial look I thought solid 170's buck, I put down numbers and got 177.

huntindad4 · Nov 1, 2020

Well my format didn't actually come out how I wanted, haha. Almost as hard to read the clarification as it is the score sheet. Oh well, you should get the gist.

Also noticed that I added the 2 inch extra eyeguard to the left instead of the right....

Okay Homer, go ahead and tear it apart, haha.

Wiszard · Nov 1, 2020

I'd say thats pretty close to 175.

Did you shoot him or just break his neck? lol nice buck!

DoubleDropMuley · Nov 19, 2020

Congrats, nice buck but surprised the burnt tree he fell against didn’t fall over on him ?

hawkbill · Nov 19, 2020

Actually he was pretty close. JB was most likely talking the REAL (net) score, which according to your numbers would put it at 167 6/8”?

eelgrass · Nov 19, 2020

He was dead before he hit the ground. I'd say you scored! Beautiful buck. Congratulations!

I agree, I’m sure Homer was talking net.

My comment wasn’t a response to his of closer to 165 than 175, but more to his (undeserved IMO) rep here of giving his lower but usually more accurate honest opinion on scores. Beasy likes to give him grief about it, I was just doing the same.

I am very happy with the buck, and he scored a bit higher than I thought he might.

PS, Roy I have a buck I am a bit confused on how to score that I may PM you a few questions on at a later time if that’s ok?

eelgrass · Nov 19, 2020

My best friend, Guy Hooper is an official scorer. I've watched him a few times and it looks easy.....if you know how to do it. It can be confusing if you don't. I enjoy watching him.
