Nice! The bottom one looks like a 9?

Damn Ric your my hero...Great 8 point you got there... Now go back and bump the original harvest thread so I can read it...
 
My other "big 8's" were actually 9pt Ric. Remove the drop tine on my 2016 buck and he 123. 131 with drop tine.

2014 grossed 156" (I think) but was also a 9. Netted 149" as an 8 though.

2008 was also a 9pt. Netted 139 as an 8. I think the only honest 8pt I shot was this last season.

I have a strange attraction to 9pt bucks. Lol. 2010 was a beautifully symmetrical 10pt but broke off a brow tine to be scored as 9. 2013 I broke out of the 9pt rut with the 14. 2014- 9pt. 2015 9pt. 2016 9pt. 2017 ??? I don't remember. He was the broken leg buck. He might have been an 8 but not a big boy. He was a blessing. Heck. They are all blessings!
 
Ole Benji killed a buck that woulda been a dandy 8 this year had he not broke off his left brow. I assume he broke it rather not growing it.
