You got cheated last year. Get in the damn truck and use the necessary precautions.
Dave.... I would hate to miss 2 years in a row.... I'm packed, well been packed for some time... LOL... Weather out there has been windy and hot so far, so I've not been missing much.... Although they have been seeing 10+ bucks a day, but nothing over maybe 135 inches... I'll toot the horn around Columbus Fri. Am.....

It takes an awful lot of antler to make 150" in an 8pt. He will be close. Mid to upper 140s I'd say. Might just tickle 150. Hard to tell in a couple pictures. Pics can be deceiving.

Heck of an 8 with a very cool and unique frame and I agree with the others that he needs caught with your arrow. Mass, beam length and spread are the deal makers or breakers with big framed 8’s. He’s got great tine length for the most part though and would certainly gross and net in the 140’s I’d imagine. You won’t have any ground shrinkage with the size of body he carries either I’d also imagine....😂🤣
Get out there and SD and take the other precautions along your journey and kill that tank...🤗👍🏻

Yeh... I was thinking 147 3/8.... Like Ric said he's a bruiser body wise, so that helps when it comes to ground shrinkage... We have another bruiser 9pt. that kinda rules the roost in that corner of the farm that has alot of mass and horse of a body... My friend Tod has passed on him twice already, but I think his days are numbered, maybe even today... He says he's mid 140s...
