Gents:
Do you have any pics of 130-150ish muleys that you could post, please? Particularly if they are along side another smaller buck to compare.
Just helping me daughter get a handle on ground shrink...:)
thx tom

I'd say these bucks, at a guess, go from between 120-160, bottom to top. Hope this helps.

130ish with fairly small body 150ish...pathetic mass and crabby back forks, otherwise he would be 170ish oddball angle...this buck was right around 130, looks smaller here

This is my muzzleloader buck from this year. Maybe 140's? I haven't taped it out because it really doesn't matter. I decided to have it mounted based on the beauty of the cape. [/URL]

Cool buck azrugerude. One wouldn't guess that's a 140ish buck at first glance. Nice spread and cool forks....

This one is mid 150's... He would've been really good in a year or two, but I just couldn't pass him up! This one hasn't been measured, but I'd say it's 140"-150".. This hasn't been measured either. It had decent mass and good back forks, but very short mainbeams. But it was a dang good first mulie. Ben

Thanks Gents, am passing them along. The comparisons help a lot.
For a girl growing up hunting MI whitetails and now transplanted to CO, looking at Cabela's Mule Deer heads doesn't quite translate to the field...:)

Muzzle loader buck I took in 1977. Had it scored in 2000 and it was 151 3/8. Made ML book. Has the distinction of having the narrowiest inside spread in the book at 14". Distance between the closest tines at top is between 3 and 4 inches.

This South Dakota muley was felled on public land with my Glenfield 30-30 carbine. Sherwood
