Another E.K. Mulw Buck

[oldkoot]

With all the great bucks showing up in the big buck thread, I thought this would be a good one to test your judgement on what you are seeing.
This is an E.K. buck taken many years ago by a well known mountain man that has now passed over the great divide. R.I.P. Buddy.

Take a guess at what it scores. The slightly hidden front fork is the same as the one on the other side.

Gotta be a solid 190" there.....nice buck!

My guess as well! Not a whole lot in deductions, very even. I'll even go 194"

187,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Was this buck taken by a former Guide Outfitter? If yes, was there not a story about it in Bigbuck Mag?

If my assumption is correct I liked the piece about his buddies stealing it out of the truck while he was in the local watering hole tipping a few.

196 - 7/8''

[bigben]

197 5/8" net, give or take 1/8 of an inch:)

Yup my guess exactly RIP RC

[darkside]

my guess would be around the 170 mark it really doesn't look very heavy and the breaks are not really long.hard to tell for sure but that's my best guess i hope i'm right . darkside out

[Jelvis]

I'd say 190+ up to 200, for a monster muley bah Huck! Not much for the fishing nets, of course it's been shrinking for decades too.
200? I'm up the Lil Sands creek right now looking for sheds ..
Jel .. Not much give and take I say 200 minus give or take a few centimeters ................. 27 inches wide maximum, even, fairly long tines with long mains.
Decent mass .. Muley MayHem .. Big Sands lil Sands .. ? .. 190+/-200?
Hard to tell looking at a picture .. Johnny Unitas

201 3/8 net.

[oldkoot]

All very good guess's and I figured some would recognize it.

197 5/8

There is a story about it in the 3rd edition of the B.C record book by the hunter himself.

Obviously lot's of the boy's know a book buck when they see one.

Good Job

[rifleman]

great buck. gotta go with 194 1\8"

[houndsman]

197 5/8 killed by ray cary in1982 nice buck .I worked as a guide for him back in the day

[snareman1234]

Let's do another one!! Maybe it'll be sept soon!

[dana]

No hesitation on pulling the pin on a buck like that! A no brainer!

[hunter1947]

Very nice mule for the EK I have to agree 197,5/8 as stated by houndsman ,if this is the buck shot by Ray Cary you spoiled it for the other members that where guessing the antler score :)..

[Caveman]

I was only 3 5/8 off, I'm good with that!!

[snareman1234]

I was only off 5/8"...Lucky guess!

[Brambles]

olkoot posted up the score before I had a chance to play. I would have definitly been booner first glance, first impression was minimun 195 net and with some carefull scrutinizing I wouldnt have been surprised if it nudged the 200" mark. For the guys that thought 170-180's....where's yer head at!!!

[grizzhunter64]

197 6/8 net typical

Well truth is I opened the thread earlier but didnt have the time to respond, kids pulling on my pant leg and all!! Figured half the jokers on this website would have dragged that guessing game on for days, but clearly your a man who means business:mrgreen:

[snareman1234]

I say we play again for 'ol brambles...New buck!
