Need help with age and score of this Eastland County 8 point.
Sorry... But I don't have any live trail camera pictures of the buck.




I don’t know if this will help with scoring but bellow are three pictures of my 9 point I shot last year. He had an official gross score of 146.





As of now I have the buck my taxi in Eastland… I will try and pick the rack up on my next trip to Eastland so I can have it officially scored.

I’m thinking he will go upper 140’s and may hit 150.
The 9 point (20") has the 8 point (18") by 2”on spread. But the 9 doesn't hold a candle to mass and tine length of the 8.

140's and from the bases and Hunting Eastland county the last 10 years + I would say 5.5 years old. The bucks around where I hunt there usually do not get that kind of mass at the base until 5.5 years from what I have seen


lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true
Mainstream news might be fun to watch

Ya... The 9 had over 24" on each beam. I haven't had a chance put the tape to the 8's beams yet.

I shot a 138-2/8th 8 point last week and he had 7" brows and 24 and change beams and good tine lenght its going to be close but he may make it to the low 40s.

I see 138" might hit 140. My signature buck is 146" and think its bigger than yours


If I put my wife in a high fence will her rack get bigger?

Not sure if the mass on the 8 makes up for the two inches in width and the extra length on the 9...? I'll say slightly bigger gross - 147 1/8.

That'd be my guess, too. +1 on a great deer to cull.
