The going away is never fair but I needed to show those squiggly brows. If he hadn't had those short 4s at all he may of got shot(probably not). First time I saw him was the going away at 400 yards and I videod him out to 800 and he never turned. I was pumped but upon further review he shrunk some but still a way cool deer. edit- ill try to post one more buck tonight if I can.

Bobo, i saw him a bunch and his brows are more than 5. I agree they probably don't look like it in those pics. He was practically in the stand with me and i saw him several times. It would however shock me if he was 60 but i really like him.

It would however shock me if he was 60 but i really like him. I’m sure, with that much mass I’m sure I’m short. I’m pretty sure low 50’s but wouldn’t be surprised if him hit 60 with that frame. Here is a NTX148 with short beams and less mass Here is NEOkla buck I missed with ML and neighbor killed, 152(w/o NT kickers), yours has 4th’s and better brows

Thanks for the comparison deer. They are very representative of his rack. Very difficult to get any perspective of size without the head/body and just those angles. Can you just whoop out a comparison pic for whatever I put up here?? Are you saying you may be short on the brows cause the mass throws off perspective? Im trying to learn here....

Oh they are terrible pictures, I wish I still had hoof pics of okla deer,
Carried Mass hides tine length in my experience. Especially if you arent use to deer with upper 30 to 40”s of mass.
At my place in panhandle I was always was short on tine length, with that said we are in a shorter time area but mass on 6.5 years was typically 38-42”, I was use to NE Oklahoma that had slightly less mass and more time length,

Good stuff, im taking notes. If the mass hides tine length then you may be short a little on 2s too. Ive still got a reply on deer 4 and 5 and more deer coming(unless yall getting bored.)

Mass gives me a Woody, I’d have shot it. It looks to be 6.5 yo. Unless age requirement on lease is older, then it’s just watch and wait.

5 1/2 and cannot get it to 6 1/2. I'd go 147 on this one. Beautiful deer.

I don't think either of his 4s will score making him a slick 8 basically. What a hell of an 8! I think he is 5.5 and would give him this: 17 IS 33-34 Mass 44-46 Beams 94-97" on frame 9-10 G1s 23-24 G2s 13-14 G3s 45-48" Tines 139-145"
High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

Good looking buck. First pic looks like he has mass for days, the rest not so much, im guessing lighting and picture angle. His going away shot looks somewhat thin horned.
I like Ilovebigbucks guess.
