Well been about 8 years since I have even killed a buck, but been in Texas for four years and this is my first! Opening morning about 7:50 this dude came trotting in like he owned the place about 5 minutes after a good snort and wheeze. I was thoroughly impressed especially seeing how it was raining all morning long. Any idea what he might score? Inside spread is 18 5/8, Right G2 is 7 3/8, Right G3 is 8", Left G2 7 7/8, Left G3 is 9".

Good looking deer! Congrats!
I'd guess him anywhere from 130-140, edging more towards 140.

Congrats on a great buck What county? Looks like it was a bit damp there this morning. I will guess 137-139.

Henderson County, and it rained from about 3:30 AM until probably 8, then sprinkled on and off. The past 3 days have been WET!
