[EliAGrimmett]

I've never done this before, but let's try a video scoring contest!

Here's the link...

Throw out some guesses!

(or you can check out our "channel" at Youtube.

Not too many videos on there yet, but I plan to add cool stuff as I get time.)

 

[The Hedgehog]

I'll throw out 87"

16 3/4 long, 5 3/4 prong, 7,7 on bottom, 7 on top.

 

[----]

That's a gorgeous antelope. I'll go with 88 1/8

 

[mhungerford]

I will say around 86 1/8".

 

[Lawnboy]

I'm going with 86 knowing that Eli won't post anything that small

I've been known to be tricky on occasion...

And for anyone wondering: This is an Arizona buck and the video was taken last year.

I'm curious on some of the guesses that have already been thrown out - what do you guys have for all the individual measurements?

I went higher than Greenhorn because he forgot the spread credit. Rookie mistake but it happens.

 

[The Hedgehog]

I think if anything, I could be gifting him. His profile is a little light, he just looks too good otherwise. So I'm sticking with what I first thought. Bang!

 

[174in]

85 inches?

 

[schmalts]

I suck at this but it looks to have great mass up top. I am guessing 86

 

[MN Public Hunter]

best guess is 89 1/4

 

[Oak]

Length 17
Prong 5 6/8
Bottom 7 2/8, 7
Top 7 4/8
Total 88 4/8

 

[the nikster]

83 and 4/8"

 

[Big Fin]

Bottom mass 14 2/8
Prong 6
Top mass 7
Length 16 6/8

Total 44 X 2 = 88

 

[EliAGrimmett]

Through the first 10 scores we have an average of 86 6/8.

The length so far is between 16 6/8 to 17.
The bottom mass between 14 and 14 2/8.
The top mass between 7 and 7 4/8.
The prong between 5 6/8 and 6.

87
88 1/8
86 1/8
86
85
86
89 2/8
88 4/8
83 4/8
88

Let's see if we can get another 10 scores on this one.

 

[Big Fin]

If I identify this buck from an article written in a hunting rag a few years back, do I get a second guess at his score?

 

[EliAGrimmett]

The buck was filmed last year.

At any rate, what would your second guess be? And what mag is this other buck from and who was the hunter? Got any photos of it?

Well, then I guess my identification skills are lacking. I was thinking of a buck I saw taken in 2006, but obviously, this one is still walking, or was still walking.

And given that, my second guess would still be 88.

 

[Spitz]

I'm game

16 length
14 bottom mass
5 4/8 prong
7 6/8 on top

86 4/8

 

[Oak]

Let's see if we can get another 10 scores on this one.

Good luck. Unlike me, many guys are afraid of being wrong. I've just come to expect it, so I don't care any more.
