Mid 70s at best from what I can see in the first 2 pictures! Although he has nice cutters, the length and mass aren't there, especially for the top measurements, so I'm probably being generous on that guess. The third pic. would be useless to try and score one.

I would agree with Topgun- he would score around 75. Really nice buck that most would have trouble passing up! The third picture isn't the same antelope.

68". I don't think he breaks 70. Good cutters but loses mass after them and isn't that long.

Here is my best guess and the reason I say he is close to 75. He doesn't have super mass and length but he is no slouch either. Would love to hear what measurements people disagree with as I am not an expert. No offense will be taken...

That's not a 14" goat. Just saying. I shot a 13" one last year and I'm not sure this one is that. Cutters are not high enough to get the mass on the one measurement. 70 seems about right. I'm not expert either and I think antelope are difficult. I've learned that if you see a monster, you'll know it. If you're debating, it's not big

I'd say you're a little tall in the length and a little heavy on the circumference, but that's just my opinion. The length of the head from base of ear to nose tip is around 13", which is the ballpark I'd put him in for length. The width of the eye is around 2", which would make me think his base is in the 5.5"-6" range. It's all conjecture, but fun to practice at in the off-season :)

His horns are probably only 12" tall. They say a pronghorn has 6" inch ears. Cutters good, not enough curl and needs more mass. He is pretty and those are great pics. But he isn't breaking 70".

Here is a few for you guys to beat your heads on!! I know the images are poor but these are from the night before I harvested him. What's your guess on score??

You guys guessing high 60's have the fever for sure! VF come on dude. Ha
I found a buck that has about the mass the ops buck has, longer prongs and horns i am fairly confident he wouldn't touch 72". I don't see any way the ops buck goes over 70. Short, not great mass and ok prongs.
