Was in the stand hog hunting, when this big 10 pt stepped out. What are your thoughts on score?? Sorry about the poor phone pic. This is a low fence non protein feed ranch in Carrizo Springs. Could he score more than 145?

Hard to tell from that photo, but he would get my attention.

It will depend on the G4s to get to 145, short dog catchers are hurting him.

great looking buck, he'll be close
If I send my neighbors a text and ask them to give me feedback on my lawn and plant rye into a giant dong pattern, I'm probably going to get some less than positive feedback. Same goes here.

Not good pics to judge by but he has the frame of a low to mid 140's deer.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

Your going to loose a lot of points with such small brow tines. But I think you got one that will go over 140.

Thanks guys, should have a pic of him on the ground opening rifle day. I know some on here would say let him pass, but a beautiful 10 to me is tough to chance not seeing again.

I would dump that deer in a second, unless you have many 160"+ bucks running around which you would prefer to take.

I'd dump him quickly. Look at his knees, width of chest. He ain't getting any younger

I'm going to say 145 or slightly bigger. I'm comparing him to the 8 I shot last year that went right at 135. You have 2 more points, slightly wider, and his g3's look slightly taller. Side by side comparison.
