Let's hear the guesses...

As terrible as these pictures are, it looks like there may be another good buck running around as well...

At least it looks like he has a good frame...and a couple drop tines.

Low to Mid 150's. Mass measurements are pretty darn good on it all the way 4x's.

Hunter, you're right about the mass, I was more basing on the tine point lengths.

Wow, I'm having a hard time seeing 160 but again I'm not a professional. On second look, I could see mid-upper 140s but not 160.

I don't have the actual numbers, but I have hunted the area for many years. I am guessing there are a few things fooling you and others with this buck. These beams are longer than most will give them credit for, the mass is more than most will think, and the tines have quite a bit of curve to them.

Gotcha, from the 1st picture it is hard to appreciate the point lengths then probably due to the angle and their curves as well as mainbeam length. In that case, I refrain from scoring. Like I said, love the mass and blading, seen it a lot in South Texas over the years.

I don't know what it scores but know the ranch.

If you straighten those beams they would be past his nose. Look at where the 3rd and 4 th mass measurements will be.

As far as tines, there some curve to them and it has some great mass so you have to run the edge of the beams. Beam Mass hides 1/2" -1 on those tines .

Plus the first pic is hard on the tines because they pointed toward camera, thus hiding length compared to ears

No way as an 11pt.

I measured an 8pt off same ranch that didn't have a tine over 6" but still made 130. You're discounting beams and mass to much
