Does this look like a 140" deer?

I saw this on another Louisiana hunting forum and the guys says he measured him at 140 2/8. Nice deer but I just don't see it. IWSHI



if you're the poster on that other forum, sorry.

Even being generous with the mass i would guess it would gross high 120s low 130s

Good beam length, good tines, average mass
The brows kill the deers score, but I wouldn't hesitate to shoot it.

those kickers are bigger than the brows and he has no mass, but I would be proud to shoot it.

No way that's a 140 class. High teens to mid 120's tops IMO.

Antler scoring is always overestimated/overstated. Look up true 140 class bucks and you'll see some much larger racks.

Where I hunt we are supposed to only shoot this or that and I always second guess myself. There was a website that had pics and you could guess then reveal the actual score.

It's hard to tell from just a front view, but I'm guessing 23-24 on the left and 22 on the right.

This deer had 20 and 21 inch beams

I wasn't saying anything because I figured since he was on another LA hunting forum, the guy may be a lurker over here.

The dude that does mine wouldn't le you choose a mount like that. He makes you get one that looks lifelike. He got in an argument with a guy that wanted a full sneak

Hard to say just by that pic. I don't think he's 140, but pretty sure it's 130+. I'd venture to guess 132. Good tines go a long way.

That's a nice buck but nowhere near 140. High 120's, 130 Max. No mass and lots of deductions. I'm guessing after deductions he'd go.120ish. Still a nice deer.
