Run a tape over them and give him an 18" spread.

IMHO...Nope...pretty good buck but with the weak G4 on the right side and not much mass it would take the net score down. This year may be a different story though! Great Find and Good luck on getting him this year!

Nope.
Weak G1's.
Not enough mass and uneven sides.
Too bad.
Maybe this year though.
Would be nice to have that in your sights.

G4 looks to be 10-12", I don't call that a weak G4.

I got 161 gross when I eyeballed him up and made my guesses, with those sweet long G4's and good length everywhere else, he could be close this yr for sure

X2....I think you have G1 and G2 mixed up. Decent set for sure....can you post what each side scored individually? Measurements are to the nearest 1/8 of an inch.

Looks good be even better this year. The only thing holding it back would be mass at this point.

Too spindly, not enough mass, main beams need to stretch out a bit BUT loads of potential to go book some year. Not saying don't take him this season if you have the chance but the area you hunt is not known to others and you think you can wait two more seasons than the potential to have a gagger is there....ahhh good choices to have

If the one G2 is 15" and the G4s are 10" and guessing the length of the other points in comparison I think it would gross close to 180" and net around 170". Defiantly a great find and should be a giant if he made it through the winter. Please post the actual measurements if you score him.

I have to agree with the OP. I think that deer is very close to B&C. Those are VERY long points…..

Just my $0.02.
