Strut10 Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 What the heck ?? Haven't had a "score this deer" post for a day or two. Here's a pair of Strut10 Ranch bucks. The first is dead. So I've actually taped this one. BUCK #1 This one still lives. So anyone's guess is as good as mine. BUCK #2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strut10 Posted January 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Somebody's pretty darned close to #1 if he's guessing net score. Same fellow's pretty darned close to my guess on net score of #2. Get your guesses in. I'll spill what I know soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strut10 Posted January 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Gotta give this round to Mathews XT Man. Deer #1 taped out at 130 6/8" gross and 125 2/8" net (green). I had deer #2 figured at 140"-142" gross and 135-ish net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

layin on the smackdown Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Man that abnormally large spread must have gave them both a little more than i anticipated. Both deer have really wide inside spreads...Nice work XT man... thanks for posting those! dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strut10 Posted January 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Deer #1 had 48 0/8" on the right, 50 2/8" on the left, a 22 0/8" spread credit (actual inside spread 22 2/8" and tip-to-tip of 20 2/8") and only 4 4/8" deductions. I had my fractions in score backward in my last post. It grossed 130 2/8" and netted 125 6/8" (green). You shoulda seen this deer's daddy at 3 1/2 years. Main frame 8 pointer at 153 2/8" !!!!!

wtnhunt Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Its all the fault of Gary Alt! :jaw: LOL. Guess whether AR's help are still a good topic of debate. At least PA does not have liberal harvest limits. Deer #1 had 48 0/8" on the right, 50 2/8" on the left, a 22 0/8" spread credit (actual inside spread 22 2/8" and tip-to-tip of 20 2/8") and only 4 4/8" deductions. I had my fractions in score backward in my last post. It grossed 130 2/8" and netted 125 6/8" (green). You shoulda seen this deer's daddy at 3 1/2 years. Main frame 8 pointer at 153 2/8" !!!!! Fooled me for sure on that first one Don, always fun guessing. I usually kinda guess based on deer pics I have seen with scores or compared to actual deer I have scored, I don't take the time to write down measurements and add up the inches when looking at pics, but I figured with looking at the pics that the deer had a 21 inch inside spread and beams around 23 inches long with the g-2's around 5-6 inches and the g-3's around 4 inches. Now looking again at the side view I am guessing I was maybe off a couple inches on the beams, they may be more than 25 inches. Am I off on the tines by much? Those tines did not look long enough to me for the deer to gross quite that high but I was clearly wrong on the beam length. Real shame that buck was a victim of scumbag poachers. You have some great wide genetics going on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strut10 Posted January 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Yeah. We seem to have developed a bit of a problem with outstanding deer dying odd deaths or just plain disappearing around here. Only a couple of them have been found dead. But both of those were shot outside of season with full metal jackets. We can only hope that somebody's mouth will run some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont get it. 48+50+22=120 2/8" gross 120 2/8 - 4 4/8 = 115 6/8" net What am I missing to make it a 130" deer??? I don't see 130" at all on that first deer.

fly Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 I'm late to play but that first one would have fooled me as well. The spread is impressive, but as stated only counts as high as the shortest beam. I was going to put it just under 120 gross. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
