    Not really to be honest.

    Black Hills Buck

    Well, he was 127 7/8" so you're right in there. I live and hunt in the Midwest and I've been fortunate enough to take some nice whitetail, and I will say this, this buck looked every bit as impressive coming in as the bucks I've taken that are knocking on the door of 150". Based on one hunt...

    Black Hills Buck

    I caped him out and brought him in but I'm thinking about doing a euro instead to be honest.

    Black Hills Buck

    I'm trying not to get too wrapped up in the score, but I added it as that's how we measure "good". I never saw a 5 point when I was out there, but I do see plenty of them posted on social media. And I agree, I wish his brows got the memo that his G2's did!

    Black Hills Buck

    Had a great time in the Black Hills of South Dakota and found one too pretty to pass up. He taped out at 127 7/8" and I honestly thought he'd be in the 130's seeing him on the hoof. Being a first timer to the Hills I was amazed at how small his body was even though he dwarfed the other deer he...

    Colorado Unit 61…

    Here is a chart of CO's deer and elk populations over the last 20ish years, this is far from just a unit 61 issue. When it comes to deer in CO the general rule of thumb is it takes twice the points for half the hunt with very few exceptions. The flip side to that, as seen in the chart, is it's...

    How many 80" bucks do you think hunters just pass on by?

    Buzz nailed it with his response. I took this buck in '21 and after telling my group that any tag filled on day 1 better be damn special, I almost passed on this guy on the first morning after thinking he wasn't much over 12". Now as you can see, length isn't his strong suit but between his...

    Scoring Question

    Roy, Thank you very much for the feedback and I can see that with your very clear explanation of the rule.

    Scoring Question

    My initial thought was the same as yours and I share your guys' confusion here, I feel like he's on that edge and I'd love to hear from some folks with more knowledge on the topic. I'm far from a pro at this, just really enjoy doing it and want to be as accurate as possible.

    Scoring Question

    I scored him both ways and he was right there with me as we were trying to interpret that rule.

    Missing CO Hunters

    I saw this as well, I really hope they find them but being gone since Thursday with little gear makes me feel less than hopeful:(. Regardless, I will say a prayer for their safe return.
