    I give him a touch more beam length on that head on picture but the tines do not get him over 40 imho. I think he is just under, 137-139.

      After seeing that pic, yes he breaks 140. I have a wide 137 on the wall and this one beats him

          Body size is what makes being consistently good at aging and scoring on a site like this very difficult. You have 100 lb differences in mature bucks across the state. A 140 lb hill country buck that looks MASSIVE may only have 30" of mass, whereas a bunch of STX places have 220 lb deer who look pencil horned and still have 30" of mass.

            Our mature deer in the hill country often push 200.

                            Very nice!!!! Congrats on the wide beast.

                            I’m a fan of those wide ones.
