This is the one he shot last night, don't know anything about score, but definitely not one you pass up! For the rifle nuts, .257 Wby with 100TTSX and 72 RL22. [Linked Image] [Linked Image]
Nice Show Me State buck!
Oh, yeh, no doubt it is not one to pass up.

Great buck!
There is nothing about that buck that adding a score to it could improve upon.

The number doesn't mean squat-diddlio, that's a fantastic buck!!

Guess: ~25" mains, 45" of mass, 18" inside spread, 70" of tines = 183"
Congrats to him!
I thought he might go near the B&C mark of 170, maybe 164-165

This. Score means nothing. I do it sometimes just to see what it adds up to out of curiosity, but the trophy should always be in the eye of the beholder!!!

My biggest trophy, is a shoulder mount of a doe that was the toughest to kill in my life. Way harder than any of my better bucks to kill.

Great buck!

Yep, that appears to be about right.

Here's his long-lost twin from WI.

This is my oldest grandson's doe from opening day, his fourth deer with four shots, first one was with a .223 AR15 at 140, second a .243 at 80 yards, third a 9 point at 174 with my 7x57, and this doe at 202 with his .243 Ruger American and 80 TTSX 45 H4350.

This is my nephew, with his archery tag filler
If he had let that one walk one more year....


Bullsheet. I'd have shot that one in a heartbeat.

Way to go!
Some very nice deer. Congratulations all the way around.
Wow nice deer everybody!

Where in Missouri?
Looks like a good one.
Posted By: Strick9 Re: My brother's Missouri buck - 11/17/15
Superb buck on all accounts! I can easily give him low 160s.

Dang Nice Deer jstevens. Glad you guys are having good luck. Its been a real slow season for me so far. Hoping the cool spell coming in later this week brings them out of the wood work. Congrats to your Family on some nice Deer.

Very nice buck!


Since we are all guessing scores, that buck looks about 170-171 to me.
173

Big headed rascal. powdr
I wasn't too far off with my 165 guess. My brother says gross was almost 168, 163 1/8 net. He was trying to say mid 150's and I knew he was better than that. we've been fortunate to have good areas, and enough restraint to hold off on bucks under 150's. Northern Missouri

When and if I ever kill a buck like that, I will instantaneously become a doe/meat hunter the rest of my days! grin

Thanks. I can't get back out till Sun/Mon, but I think it'll be better if it isn't 65 degrees.

Incredible buck! I would have guessed 175 or so. Congrats to your brother on an excellent trophy.

What MO county did he come from? I'm guessing north-central region.
Our place is about a mile from Iowa. NW. I think counting mine, we have about 45 on the wall over 140, but at the same time it isn't unusual for us to not fire a shot at a buck for a year or two. Him and my nephew get good archery bucks pretty much every year. If I get bored, I'll take some pictures of the basement man cave. My walls contain more African stuff than anything else.

That's a big racked buck!

Very nice buck!
Well, I didn't fire a shot, but our other hunting partner did OK. [Linked Image]
I think he said it netted 162 3/8
Posted By: 7mmMato Re: My brother's Missouri buck - 11/25/15
