nice buck!

Official score: He's a shooter!:hump:

Bang, flop. Then measure.

Forgot to put my estimate! I would guess him to be in the 82" range.

 

[Hobbs]

I would guess him in the high 70's to low 80's, but I'm not real good at field judging Goats. He's a shooter in my book though.

Good method on this buck. Nice long prongs and a fair amount of curl; no matter the score he will look good on the wall!!

He is a bruiser no doubt. I would bet 85+ net, with ease. He's over 16 long, very good mass everywhere and a 6" or better prong.

 

[The Hedgehog]

I'll guess 16 length, circumferences of 6-7/8, 6-7/8, 4, 3 prong of 6-1/8. If anything, those numbers are likely low. That is a fantastic antelope.

Definitely a shooter and B&C buck for sure. 83-85 without question.

what zone Cacty? he looks like one I found in 150-152 for our hunt. beast of an antelope, my guess is 83-84". good luck and hope you get him!

I'm not drawn in 150-152...although there are some great goats in that country. Best of luck to you guys Bonedogg...keep us posted man.

Thanks bud, will do! So far a bunch of decent bucks but nothing mind blowing like that one.

Dang that's a good one!

 

[EYJONAS!]

flip the safety on him.

 

[orion23]

i feel like the cutters are too low to put him to 80. upper 70s is my guess.

 

[Hobbs]

When does your season open? Looking forward to some more pictures of him after you get him on the ground.

October 15th, 6 day season only.

I'm not disagreeing at all but do you not garner 2 mass msmts below the prong regardless of where it sits? I'm aware of the extremely rare case where you get three below the shovel.
