First post - curious on score - 01/09/15 03:57 PM





I've been reading on this board for awhile now and never have posted. I'm pretty sure this buck is 3.5... maybe 4.5 but what I am not good at is judging score. I know its not high but i'm just curious as to what class he falls in. We still have 2 weekends left and I'm hoping he makes it another year. I had him on camera last year as well and if he continues to develop like he did from last year to next he could be pretty nice.

Thanks for the help - I'm asking about the deer on the left in the 2nd pic.

He ought to be in the 105" range, give or take.

I don't disagree - but where i'm hunting we've decided to pass on all bucks this season. Trying to let them grow up....

What county? I understand the letting him walk. He looks like to be 120 more or less in those pics and a 4 yr old. Great browtines add to score.

In Atascosa County. And yes, his browtines make him a really nice 8. He had decent browtines last year - much better this year though.

I was going to guess Atascosa just from the soil and mesquite. McCoy?

Just on the other side of 37 from McCoy. I drive through McCoy heading there from my house in Poth

My guess if 4 years old and mid to hi teens, 115-118. He has great brows, but 3's look weak.

I agree with this, 130" buck and 4yo.

looks like a 120 inch ish buck
probably 3.5 maybe 4.5
most likely will always be an 8
might grow some kickers when he or if he ages
welcome to the forum

There are some good deer on and around the Arrow S Ranch.

I think he's 3.5, could be 4.5. 118". I think letting him walk is a good idea, he could be pretty nice next year.

This picture was taken about 100 yards from the arrow S fence line.... The northern section.
