I just can't tell from those pics what he'll score, but of the deer I've seen that are around 200", I just have a hard time putting him in that category. I have a 19 pointer on the wall at home that is almost impossible to get a good guess on the score using pics because you just can't show everything in a few angles. That, and it's hard to referrence size to anything from a picture. |

My opening day Pennsylvania buck, a nice 6 point. I had limited time to hunt PA and I would be crazy to pass this buck up for the area I hunt.

No single pics, but that's our deer pole from the WI regular season. Mine is the little spike in the middle, shot with a 6.5 Grendel at about 175 yards. All of them were shot on public land.

I know your little boy is the star of this thread now (and rightly so he is awesome) but I thought I would share my season kills so far. Shot this sow in the head late Sunday before Thanksgiving.
The the next morning I went to a common area ground blind and about eight oclock a nice wide mature 7 comes out facing and looking right @ me @ 135 yards not a shot I take straight on. This goes on for a couple of minutes and if he turns I'm shooting he is five feet from the woods so I won't have long. I'm holding on him for what seems like an eternity but maybe 5 minutes as he starts to turn I squeeze one off. I have never missed completely but I missed this guy clean and to my amazement he is standing frozen still looking straight at me but totally broadside now. I chamber another round and try to steady, and squeeze off another shot, no kick, jump, nothing he turns around and runs back where he came out from, I listen and hear no crash, and I think I must have missed again!?! I wait a few minutes and walk down to where I shot him and can find no blood, hair tissue nothing I can see where he turned and ran back into the woods and I look briefly in the woods no blood no deer. I spend the next two hours sitting in the blind wondering how I could miss from that range not once but twice? It seemed impossible. After beating myself up mentally I thought I would look again before walking out, no blood, but when I followed his departure route into the woods I saw where he was running through the leaves toward the bottom. I walked about another 60 yards down hill and there he was, I was relieved. He only had one hit but it was a good shot, went through both lungs and broke his far shoulder and exited.

I am always willing to help. 
I missed this same deer during muzzleloading season and I can't think of a better person to take this buck instead. We should have taken pics of the amount of fat on this buck. Not too shabby for a Florida deer. 
Time for me to step up my game! Tag for future pics. |

I think there is just alot of confusion out there in measuring a rack and like others have said, pics dont always relay the actual size of the rack. |
