Here's a buck that ended up getting killed on the Utah muzzy hunt.
Please specify if your guessing a gross or final net score.
I personally will always give out a gross score unless it's been entered into the record books.

First video was when I first came across him in early August. I was a couple miles away.

Second video was a couple weeks later on the opening day of the archery hunt.

Well since things have pretty much died around here, I'll go ahead and post his numbers.
This buck by far was the most misleading buck on size I've ever seen.
I thought for sure he was pushing 30"(probably was in velvet) and was a mid to upper 170" buck.
He was a very young buck(probably three years old) with a small body.
He also had very thick velvet and when he shed the fuzz, he became very willowy.

He ended up just under 29" wide and gross scored 159". Contest1.jpg

That is pretty narrow on the main beam. Beams still look like they are decent length and go forward more than outward. Width is overrated in my mind and it shouldn't play into the score anywhere.

This is fun. I thought I posted my 150 on this one, but must've failed to do so. Oh'well. I've gotten pretty lucky thus far on scores.
I'm ready for another!
