Is he a booner?

Looks like he will gross in the mid 180's to me. Net will be closer to the low 170's so...yep he sure looks like a booner to me. BTW, I had guys estimating my 2004 booner as a 160 to 165 class buck (gross) too. He grossed 184 & change and netted 175 & change typical.

170 net typical is lifetime B&C, 160 net typical gets you into that period's annual awards but not into lifetime. B&C is on the 3rd year of their 27th awards period. Next year the 28th awards period begins.

yeah we were thinking over 170's but we've been hunting him about a month so we'll see. We've had several encounters in the evening of seeing him but just out of range and looks HUGE in person. Keep your fingers crossed. I'll post a couple more pics of him with different views.

Alan (Rhino) is right about the scores. I have a 171 gross typical that netted 162 and made it into the awards category for B&C. Awards category means it only gets published in one book for that time period. A typical has to NET 170 inches to make it in the ALL TIME book that is updated and published every some odd number of years.

Looks like a 5X5 with a lot of trash. I doubt there is enough trash to go the non-typical route - 185 (Awards). I do think you'll make the 160 typical (Awards). All the trash doesn't help a bit for a typical score though so I'd say he'll be right at 170 inches net. Awards for sure, All-time (it'll be close but I'm leaning towards saying he'll make it).
