Two questions.
1-Would you take him or let him go another year?
2-Score est? Im thinking 130 +/-

I've let a couple bigger walk already this year, so I'd let that one walk. I'd estimate 125 on score.

I'd pass on him I think. I passed on a couple of good ones opening weekend. And, I'm no good at scoring.

Yeah, I figured the same thing. I passed on him so he could get some more genetics in the pool. If I see him at the end of the season I might have a harder decission on my hands though.

If it were up to me, I would let him walk. But it is up to you, if you like him..take him. Nothing wrong with him.

Isnt that the one that stuck his tongue out at you in the pic on the Photo Forum? He's asking for it in my opinion...

He's a nice one, but depends on the goals for your property. He'll definately add some size over the next year or two.

He will be but I don't know if Id be the one to shoot him. Im afraid someone else would since its a "family ranch" He is a great breeder for sure.

Yeah redsnake. He's the same one that stuck his tongue out at me. I didnt see that pic till i got back to the house that evening. Its a great picture.

Id let him walk on our place. He will be a dandy in a year or two.

Pass him up so your neighbor can shoot him. That's how it usually works out.
