This is a high fenced buck that was released onto a property I work on in Irion County. He's got to be over 200". I'm not real good at judging big nontypicals like this. Maybe y'all have an idea. Spread looks to be about 22". I'm counting 21 points, maybe 22 or so depending on the length of some kickers. He's got a pretty nice drop tine near the left base. Red ear tags which are plainly visible, but I can't quite make out the numbers. Might have been some dust on the lense of my Nikon D4 digital SLR I bring to work with me for photo ops like this, which might explain some slight blur around the edges.
What do you think? Score? Age? Points?

They look bigger walking away...zebco 33 camera needs a new operator.

If I send my neighbors a text and ask them to give me feedback on my lawn and plant rye into a giant dong pattern, I'm probably going to get some less than positive feedback. Same goes here.

He has a nice butt. But that's about all I can make out from my iPhone.

They look bigger walking away...zebco 33 camera needs a new operator. I hope you wear your glasses when you drive, at least. That pic is as clear as the water in west Texas.

17 pointer with a drop on the driver side, nice kicker on the passengers side and a #26 red tag.

Clear as a bell in the last photo behind the bush Actually it was the 2nd photo, last one just confirmed it

Why are you on the wrong side of the fence anyway?
