Uncles Huge 8 Score

Trophy,
Our best guess is he died of old age. We had 5-6 years of pictures of him. At his largest, he was a mainframe 12, with splits and stickers, making him a 16.

That sucks. And I just took a quick glance and said 10 point lol! I figured he was more. Hopefully y’all will see another like both of them!

Great buck.
The can was a nice reference.
But, I think all of us could tell anyway..that’s a jumbo.
Congrats to your Uncle.

I finally got my hands back on my uncles 8 from this past season. He and I both killed great deer the same morning in late December. His was a true East Texas Giant, and a lifetime deer for him. He had left it with DD Taxidermy, and after Dave’s sudden death, was asked to pick it up. Well past the 60 day drying period, and correct measurements, we finally have a solid number for it. Here’s a pic of the horns, and one of the score sheet. Biggest NE Texas buck I’ve ever laid my hands on, especially for a no fence timber lease.

If I did my math correct, I believe you shorted him a couple of inches - 26/8 converts to 3 2/8 and 28/8 to 3 4/8. These two extra inches make him 159 6/8"!!!

Congrats to your uncle that’s one hell of an 8pt. Getting him in east Texas is all the more special

lol, I am an Aggie. I’m always scared of over adding, and I ended up going under.

Man I’ll tell you what. I prefer a big 8 to the bigger stuff. They just look like a classic deer to me.

Don’t get me wrong I’ll take a 17... maybe 18 point buck.
