Bring it to Fargo Scheels (if you are in the area) on Thursday the 13th, between 6-8. I think I read on another thread there will be a taxidermist there to score deer.

Great buck!! Looks like your luck turned around after I saw you guys. You can also go to Boone & Crocket web page and goes through the scoring process. I did it with the one I shot a couple of years ago. Mine was a 7x6 gross score 164 6/8s. Can not wait to hear your story.

Thanks. I watched about 25 other bucks that day before I decided to take this one. I always wanted a split brow tine buck that was thick and tall. It was tough to pass on a few before this guy but I am glad I did. The funny thing is that this buck isn't that old. If I would have passed him up, next year he would have been really really big, but what are the chances I would ever see him again or that he would even make it through the year.
