I printed off a sheet off SCI webpage. Lenght/Width/Mass/Cottle lenght/Brow Lenght.

From everything I have read online and reviewed. That broken brow on the front is going to cost me the actual "world record" LOL I was joking when I actually made the thread title as it was in my eyes type deal but looks as though it could have actually been true. As it sits I will be somewhere in the top 10. Still searching for an official scorer however just to honor this giant.

33" Main beam, 31" wide, 7" mass, and 12.5" cottle tines, 7" brow. Thats IF I measured everything right. I know there is a certain way to get the right measurements but that is what I came up with

[Burnadell]

Congratulations on that monster!

Nice axis!

[Patton]

They sure don’t get too much bigger than that!

That Axis has more mass than any I have seen. Was he taken just west of Menard???? If so, there is a pocket of really big ones there. A few years ago, a local fellow brought one by the store that scored over 163 and a few months later, I saw one in Hwy. 190 that was nearly as big. I am hearing reports of another big buck 3-4 miles west of town along the river but I have not seen him yet.
Adios,

Yes sir. Just west of town close to Clear Creek. I can not seem to find an official scorer to get him certified. Looking at the SCI records online he would diffidently make Top 10 in the world and Top 5 in Texas and thats with the 6-7" brow broken off
