Is there any chance this buck scores 150 without brow tines?

Don't see a pic

No, not without brow tines. If he had matching 4-5” brows he would be in the neighborhood. But as is, I would guess 135-140”. A very nice deer either way.

140 9/8

Is there a requirement for 150”?

This year, yes.

Family has some private land where we just follow state rules but some is part of a hunting club where this buck would need to be 155 with brow tines, and 150 without.

143 1/8

The clubs and properties that I’ve heard about requiring something like 150”, also have a waiver for the buck if he’s 5+ years old. Seems fair. The idea being to shoot mature deer. Even on the best properties and best dirt in the Deep South, a 150”+ is rare.

Without brows, I think he’s gonna be short of the mark. Great buck, though. My guesses… (at first blush, he looked a little bigger)

44” for main beams
16” for 2s
20” for 3s
8” for 4s
18” for spread
32” for circs = 138”
