If you're one of those people that hates these threads, please just move on to a topic that better suits you. For the rest of you, what do make of this buck? Pay no attention to the date or time on the pics. I'm not smart enough to figure out how to work the settings on my complicated-as-hell Stealth Cam.

I don't think he will quite get there. low to mid 50's is as high as I could get him.

I'm not sure he'd break 150 to be honest.

first time I had him at 147... I have been surprised before so giving him a little extra I could get up to 153.

Well, we're trending down now, but with just a couple pics to work with and the velvet factor I wouldn't bet much money against any of these predicitions. That being said, here's how I size him up: 58 in tines (8.5 for the G1s, 18 for the G2s, 20 for the G3s and 10 for the G4s, plus 1.5 extra for the cow horn) 18 inch spread 32 in mass (pretty safe number for a mature buck in our area) 48 in MBs (ditto) Total = 156 Thanks for the feedback dudes.

he looks mature as far as the body size goes he might have one more year of gaining inches but he is mature enough to not feel bad about taking at all

Hell of a deer! Can't wait to see hard horn pics

Man the more I look at this deer I don't think I can even give him upper 140's. Here is how I have him: G1's = 6" + 1" for abnormal point on base G2's = 14" G3's = 18" G4's = 8" inside spread = 18" Main beams = 44" Mass = 32"
Total = 141"

He will make 150 if I'm guessing close on his mass.

Total = 141" I believe your right on the money. Had buddy who manages whitetail on a ranch tell me to take 10 inches off in a photo. So far everytime I have followed his method he has been correct.
