What does this NV buck score?

Here is an old mule deer buck from the Ruby Mountains in NV. What does this buck score? He is 30 inches wide, but I'm not an expert on scoring mule deer. I've had these antlers for a long time Does he break 180 ?

I would say that it does go 180+"

30 wide with good brows. I vote he breaks it.

Great buck! A little bonus with those eye guards. Long main beams. He’s low 180s.

Beautiful buck! 184 plus

30” wide, giant eye guards, great forks. 185-190 my guess.

Hard to tell for sure, but I think everybody is underjudging this buck.

185+ those eye guards really help. He might be close to 190. Worth getting measured to see if he nets B&C, he's close.

For reference this buck nets 192 1/8. 30" wide.

Great buck! Ima guess 190

Here’s another reference… this buck gross green scored just north of 180” and is only 25” wide….

yoteduster · 2024-08-28T13:18:14-0600

I think he'll break 180 easy...

Thanks guys. I'll post up the official score when I get the antlers measured. Someone lacquered the antlers many years ago. Found these antlers in an old barn. Doesn't look great.
