I'll give Eli a break! This one may be a bit tricky without a head..It is my buck from Wyoming a few years ago.

The only kill pic I have

You are right, without the head, perspective is hard to gain. This is based mostly on the bottom field pic. I would guess right around 79 gross, with some pretty big symmetry deducts for really good mass on one horn, not matched on the other.
 
I thought it looked huge from a couple angles. I'm going to go 84 gross.
 
fits a 97 style ford, not for sale..the truck is still running.

Good guesses so far, its a tough one with no live or decent kill photo's.
 
Nice buck. I'd say:

16" long
6" prong
12 4/8" bottom
7" top
83" gross
82 2/8" net
 
A few were pretty close

Randy, 84 gross was dang near on the mark

Oak guessed 82-2/8 net..very close

sorry, my scanner is down, so I had to take a pic of the score sheet..I ain't a very good photographer! If you cant see it, its 83-7/8 gross, 82-0/8 Net.

Heck, I'm regretting not keeping the cape from my first buck and it's not near as big as yours! Guess it's not too hard to get another...cape that is.
 
Shot in the dark pays off!!
Almost seems like I do better just going with the number that first pops up in my head, rather then adding up all the measurements.
