Unreal brother. Greg was right, pictures don't really do that deer justice. When I got the text I was thinking 140ish. He's an absolute hawg!!!

My thoughts exactly. Great example as to what mass does to score. Awesome

And having three main beams on his left side helps too. Notice how the hook end carries throughout each beam on that side. The more I look at it the more I convince myself that it looks like a brow tine only because of its position but IMO I think its another beam.

To be truthful, when I saw trail camera pictures of this deer I had a different thought. My thoughts were along the lines of "Cool looking deer" or "Looks mature and crazy". I think these pictures really do Character some justice. Not only is he crazy and cool looking, but he is a pig and a half! True monster in my book.

Yeah, he's at Derrys now:)

Derry will have him back to me in 5-6 weeks!:pickle:

A veteran deer hunter was there talking to Derry when I walked in with him and said, "WOW! What character!" I said, how'd you know his name? Lmao
