Need a side view also to properly judge length . Also the pic is fuzy so I really can't tell if he is in velvet or just heavy on mass . But with all the maybes and what ifs it all comes down to SHOOT THAT SUCKER LOL.

Big! I say 31-35 but he would score high reguardless do to the width and possible mass. Looks to be in velvet to me

Decent length and very nice Caudels. As stated it's hard to tell on his mass but he looks like a nice buck for sure!

Well i got him after a heck of a stalk by myself. Seen him 440 yards out and took over an hour to pull the trigger, it was tuff and he is down. When i posted the pic of him i thought most people would think he was bigger than he was, he had great mass and awesome caudicals but a little short on beam length. A huge body! I love everythinh about axis and it was an awesome hunt, he was tuff but a 270wsm in the neck took his life!

That's a nice looking rack!! Really like the mass and caudals. How big did he end up being?

I think Caudels and brows make an axis. That is a great one. What was the length
