Judging an antelope

[fez]

I cant decide if this buck is a shooter. Some angles he looks really good, but then others it seems he lacks the mass and height to make him a great buck. Any experts out there with an opinion?

Here is another picture. Thanks and good luck to all this year

Great looking cutters, plenty of height and hooks look good. If your straight looking at numbers, I think he will fall below 80 inches. I want to say ear length is 6 inches... and eyeballs are roughly 2 in diameter...

I've never been a trophy hunter, I have always shot the first buck that made me excited and apearred to be a mature age. If you like the way he looks then pull the trigger. Cause you never know if you pass on him if someone else wont.

Bang. Flop.

Not a trophy hunter here. If you like him and he looks good "chootem". I'd be firing lead at him. He has a cool shape to him.

good luck to all
the dog

I've never hunted antelope before but he looks decent to me also. I think if I can find him again I will take him. Anyone think he scores 75+

Went on my first lope hunt this past weekend and took a nice doe. Saw a TON of bucks, thought about the differences and then at the end of the day saw a joker so big he made me go "DAMN!!!" Antlers made his head look tiny. The guy I was hunting with is a seasoned lope guy and said he thought it was 17-18in....Just a monster, body include.
