Gross score of 156-2/8 inches. That included 5-7/8 inches of non-typical burr points above the bases, and 3-1/8 inches for symmetry. Final score of 147-2/8 for Pope & Young. This was the heaviest horned archery buck I've been fortunate enough to take, with both base circumferences measuring 6-2/8" after drying. Seems to be an old buck with heavy wear on the teeth. I would guess he was 7.5 yrs but it would be interesting to have his teeth cementum-annuli aged to know for sure. --------------------
