Default Guess the score wt

I found this guy while shed hunting last year. I was exited out of my mind when I walked up on it. Il probably never find or shoot something bigger than him. What do you guys think he would score? I'm not a pro at scoring animals but I have a pretty good idea of what he whent around. 22 4/8 outside spread.

X2 Okay, okay I don't "Care" but I sure am curious. Jack&7 is right though, what ever it scores it's a dandy.

Last day of hunting season last year was the first time I found an Antler. A 7 pt Moose. I wondered to myself how my whole life I never found one spending my childhood in the woods and thousands of hours in the bush in my life. But since last year I actually started looking and have found about 30 this year. I was just never looking so the mind just didnt pick up on it when i was observing.

im guessing 195 and change +/-. Thats a cool lookin deer too bad you couldn't have seen him alive. Looks like he has some very long main beams. What did you score him at?

Field judging a critter can be tough as proven by the responses here in estimations that differ 30 plus inches

Cool pick-up and thanks for sharing.
