Pictures vs being there

[First-light]

So today my neighbor shot a real nice buck. I got a picture of it, what do you think it weighed and inside spread?

I’ll take a stab at this. 19.5 inch inside spread. 167 lbs dressed.

179#. 18 inside.

You guys were close. 20" inside 152#. My point is I thought it was much bigger from the photo. Maybe its just me but I always think photos make the deer and rack bigger. Just me I guess.

100% Not to many times have I seen a picture of the deer then the actual deer and thought man that picture really does not do the deer justice. It's almost always the opposite.

I would have guessed 18" inside but never guess on weight because I am usually wrong which is why I bought a scale.

All I know is some of the ones I have dragged out felt like 400 lbs. and they didn't weigh half of that

I always like to see the bigger racks in person. That's why we shoot bigger rack bucks.
