Just for general information, many years ago, perhaps as far back as the 60's, the state of Wyoming (Sp ?) did a survey as to the ferquency of 30 inch bucks killed by hunters. They were less than one in 1000 bucks killed. 40 inch bucks were less than 1 in 100,000 bucks killed. E
And in the 60's and 70's there were as much as 50% more muleys than there are today. In Colorado, not only has the entire population declined since then, but the mature buck to doe ratio has declined also. There are less mature bucks per 100 does.
Despite studies in several states, nobody has been able to demonstrate why.

Not being married to any particular political party sure makes it a lot easier to look at the world more objectively... Having said that, MAGA.
That's a tremendous buck! When you say 30 inches is that his inside measurement between main beams?
For others, Notice how the antlers on WASP's buck go past his ears before they curve up. That width and length of the main beams counts a lot in most scoring systems I'm aware of.
He doesn't have a 220 frame. He very big and downright beautiful, but he is a bit narrow.
I know everybody says this kind of stuff, but growing up and living on the West Slope I have seen quite a few typical and non-typical muleys with frames that would be 20-30 inches larger than him.
Of course, he is also a large body buck and that can make the antlers look smaller. That buck has a very thick and deep body. 225+ lbs.

We may never know, and you may be right, but I have the luxury of staring at my 212" gross B&C typical on the wall every day, and I think his buck has better fronts, is not quite as wide, then you get to add a dropper.
6mmWasp....that is one fantastic and beautiful buck sir!

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
This buck is 220"-225" IMO. There are some extra inlines you can't see in this view and he's long everywhere. I would post the other pictures I have but I didn't take them and out of respect for that man that did I just can't do it

That's reasonable and courteous.
His main beams must be long and front forks really deep to gross that high. Quite a buck!

I have 2 over 30 and another was 29 7/8.
I saw a huge one the end of last Feb while calling coyotes. I hunted hard this yr in that area with leaves still on the mesquite and thick vegetation from heavy rains. I never found the track of him or the other big one that was with him.
