I've got video footage from the past 6 or 7 years of some trophy bucks in which I can share an attached width and gross score if enough people are interested.
Would people like to try and guess the size before numbers are released or should
I just give the numbers at first, when posting a video?

Sounds like fun. Do you have the actual scores of the bucks just so that we might learn from it?

I'd say he's around 28-30" wide, so maybe 29".
I think he'd gross score around the low 190s. Maybe 191".

Sounds good, how about you just send out the prize from your place, instead of sending them to me and then me sending them back out again.

sounds good. if you have pics for two different bucks, I will put something together for the two winners. once you decide the winners , just get their address to me and I will send em out. prize will be something like a coyote call or maybe a knife. I'll find something to make it fun

Here's a video I shared on the other post.
I don't know an exact score, just what the guy said it did from the sheds he found.
So we'll say this is a practice round.
I watched this buck feed across the canyon for a couple hours.
It's safe to say that I agree with what the sheds scored at, give or take an inch or two on inside spread.

Well this hasn't got much traction.
The buck was reported to score in the high 190s and was killed during the archery hunt the following year, in which it went 205".
I'll post a new video in a couple days but we need more input.

Ridgetop,
You're very close, my buddy measured him up and grossed @201 3/8''. Net after deductions right around 190''.
31 1/2'' outside. Not bad for public land, 1 point unit.
