Default Guess the score!

I dropped the ball this year and forgot about scouting a little area that hasn't produced in the past. I knew there was a good buck in there last year, but I totally forgot that I hung a camera in the area.
I finally went back and picked it up today.
This pic was taken mid July of this year, so I'm curious if anyone has any guesses where this buck may end up size wise.

Thanks guys

Maybe has 2 main beams on left side, hard to get a good read on him tho. If a typical, looks to have a few inches of deductions, would likely score about 145.

I think higher than 150's. I would say likely in the 160's already. Very hard to judge based on that angle but he has a pretty darn solid 5x5+ frame. Tines are not super long but ok. Loses some points in that he does not look overly heavy but gains in some extra junk.

Over all of this is the fact that the picture was taken in july and may have had some more growth in store. But most importantly is that deer does not look old by any means. He could be huge soon

In the 150's. With the velvet on…looks a little bigger than a person thinks.

Exactly! I figured 155 at first glance.
