164 on the MF 9 and depending on the mass I think the 10 may push 160

First of all, ive said it before but that first buck is a real beaut. That picture is awesome. Before I guessed him much lower than others. Then the pic in the truck he looks smaller and I think maybe Im right. Then I completely rethink him and I get 170, so maybe Im clueless. The 10 I did pretty quick but I got 161. Great place you got.

Its all a matter of perspective right? if you figure the top buck with a width of 17" you get a low score, but if you rethink and go bigger then everything scales up and he scores bigger. Personally I think he is around 17" wide, and scores around 144-146". but I could be way off.
Bottom buck isn't super wide either, but both are pretty. Short brows hurt the score, but not too bad. I am getting a tad under 150" on him.

The evening he saw that deer he had his wife and 3 young kids at the ranch and we had big dinner/football watching plans. The fact that he came in on his first hunt and parked over the corn for an hour also gave him some confidence that it would be easy to go back and kill him. He hunted that deer fairly hard afterwards with every intent of killing him, but just never got another chance. I get it and might have done the same. The deer wound up scoring just 1.5 inches under his all time best deer, which was the last whitetail trophy he killed way back in in 2006. He doesn't pull the trigger much, you could say. Buy yeah, he should have shot!!!

The MF 9 scored 161.5, which is about where we had him with a chance of being a little bigger. The spread was 19 and the kickers added up to almost 12 inches.
