Fred's Buck

[Liv4Rut]

My dad called me the other day and told me he got a good picture of a big buck. Fred (scott ic) said he claims this buck for next year. All kidding aside, what would you guys guess for a score and age. I know, pictures are hard to tell

 

[Rudd]

I think Fred's luck was all used up in 2004...I'd call him yours.

Rudd- what the heck is that in your avatar? a billy goat or a black lab? Is that your car hanging from a tree?

 

[Central Iowa]

153" and 3 1/2. Carries good length out to the 4's and good averages on all others. Tough angle to judge both gives that wide angle effect.. Looks like "someone" has something to lok forward to this fall.

 

[sureshot]

160", He's going to be a MONSTER next year. I'd wouldn't let Freddy claim him!

 

[Liv4Rut]

Here is a much better picture of it. My dad got the actual photo put onto a CD so here it is. My guess was 160-170, and a 3.5 - 4.5 year old (based on body size) because i know its bigger than my late muzzleloader deer score wise. My dad says that this isn't the big ten pointer that he has been seeing, so it looks like this one is the smaller of the two. Don't worry guys Fred won't be anywhere near this buck come next fall

sorry bud

 

[Critter]

Screw Fred, you should rename him CRITR'S buck.

No seriously!

That's a great looking buck LIV, I'd say he's easy 165 to 170 already. As for age, I'm not gonna guess.....I suck at it.
CRITR
P.S. Just kidding Fred.

Dandy buck!
Gonna be a good one next year.
He may not go that high though. He looks to be lacking in the G2 department.

My guess 165-170", 5.5 years old, around his eyes and snout he is showing his age.

Let Fred shoot him, I want to see him at the taxidermists.

 

[DOR]

Awesome deer!

I think he is all of 4.5 as well! 170ish despite short g2's.


Better start kissing butt Fred!

 

[Scott]

Well said Nonres.

Mike can have him, I will just shoot the big one. I would say 4-5 years old, high 160s. Anybody else think this deer has got a gimped left front leg?

 

[MuzzHunter]

Too bad Fred, my dad said it's already got his name on it. He thinks he seen this buck once during hunting season and thinks he'll go boone.

 

[Renobber]

I think it is just takin a step, but I dunno not unless it is flinching maybe don't know tho

 

[Scott]

It looks like there is a scar and some swelling in the top of that leg.

 

[muddy]

MuzzHunter, your dad has to stop shooting spikers first.

 

[Critter]

Well if that ain't the pot callin the kettle black.

CRITR

 

[muddy]

1.5 year old spike... with... uhhh... only one spike... and... uhhh... yeah.

 

[Liv4Rut]

I dont know muddy, how many 140-170 inchers do you have on the wall compared to him

I won't answer that

 

[Bakes]

Sounds like it's time to elevate your game Muddy, these guys are talking a little smack and it's only February.
