    Im not very good at quessing the score of animals but my hunting partner and I have seen both of these and were woundering what they may score…the 8pointer I had at about 45 yards on opener and saw him 2 weeks ago twice..he looked thick and Im guessing maybe 19 inches wide. The 10 point was seen last weekend…and its side you cant see appears to be about the same as the side you canm…Im waiting to pull the camera chips so these are the best pics I have of them…for now …sorry they are not too good but what do you guess each would score…I’ll still stick either one if I get a clear shot…Thanks Jay

    If that 8 is 19″ wide, i will say around 123-128″ gross His beams are around 24″ and 2’s and 3’s are decently long! That 10 on the other hand i think will go around 150″+ Those 2’s and 3’s on the left will go 11″+ Its really had to tell though on both just cuz of the side angles I may be under estimating that 10 though Either way, smoke those suckers

    My knee jerk reaction is mid 130’s on the 8 and high 140’s on the ten. Knock em down and put a tape to them and let us know

    low 130’s on the 10

    I am thinking the 8 would score around 110-115″ and the 10 around 120-125″…. with little for deductions. It takes ALOT of rack to push the 150″ class. Nothing wrong with these either

    8pt probably about 120ish
    10pt could possible reach the 140 mark.
    Just like Gut said easier to measure on the ground
    Good Luck

    I would say the 8 is in the upper 120s and the 10 is in the mid to upper 30s. What the 10 has in tine height, it looks like he looses in mass. Shoot one so we can find out!!

    8 might go mid 130’s.. 10 might go mid 140’s.

    Hard to tell from onnly one picture and no straight on shots but I put the 4×4 @ 128″es gross with 4″ brows and 16″ spread (both are hard to see from pic).

    The 5×5 is harder to tell but from what I see I would say 136-142″ gross with a 16″ spread also.

    Thanks for the replys..I thought maybe 130’s on the 8 and 140’s on the 10..I plan on putting the big 10 I had at 10 yards last week in the back of the truck so these guys will get another year growth …A guy can hope right?..Jay

    That was my guess too.
