Also, do you guys think that he will make Pope & Young?

It will be pretty close. I estimated the numbers from your pic and come up with about 126 net. You might want to ask your taxidermist to green score your buck for you. Any loss from the 60 day drying period is mainly going to be about 1/2" in the inside spread. wink.gif

Thanks for the estimation. The thing that will get him there will be his width on the main beams and his inside spread. A couple of small deductions for abnormal points were the only concerns. He's got nice length on the brow tines, so I suppose we will have to see.

Thanks everyone for the replies, it truly was "magic in the woods" last saturday evening!

Beautiful Buck cool.gif

As far as the Question goes about the Hogs...

Mostly Scavenged carcasses is probably the reason for them finding deer parts in them. Dont think a Hog could chase down a mature deer wink.gif and they darn sure wont sneak up and get a free lunch!

My bet is that it got caught on a fence he was crossing as the cause for it's loss.
