Would any of you know what this buck would score roughly.This is the buck i hit with my crossbow but didn't manage to kill.He is still alive and doing well but with a patch of hair missing high on his front back. I would guess from my arrow .Sorry for the size but thats all i got.

It's thick around the bases and about 22 inch wide spread, but, some fork tines are short, quite symetrical tho, I'd have to say 150 maximum gross .. This season could be bigger for sure.
Jelly -- score 150 gross, 148 net, won't make record book but a very good wall hanger.. Hat rack ..

Too bad you missed him... I'd be kicking myself to years!! Just wondering what distance you shot at him from? I had a deer duck under my arrow twice this year.

:-D Hey Hermit , Deer don`t DUCK your arrow . At the sound of the bow released arrow they instinctivly squat to begin the process of the first JUMP and or SPIN in getting the heck out of there.

I've seen a few bucks shot above the lungs and below the spine and survive.(assuming thats what you mean by high front back?)
I think he would make 170 gross.

nice buck, hopefully you get another crack at him next fall.

my guess is he's knockin on the door of 160 gross.

I would say low 160 to bad you did not get him ,maybe this year you might get him if he is still around.

Maybe he might be in the 170 range this year ???.

Hey Mikey, any time you want to come up next year i always have room and the rumour is the mulies won't have to be a four point for a portion of the season.I've seen some beauty 3pts last year that i wouldn't hesitate to shoot.I'm hoping i get another chance at that one that got away cause he's the biggest buck i've ever seen.
