Coues 'n' Sheep Report post Posted April 14, 2009 Last fall my Bro-in-law found this coues shed while out scouting a new unit. It is actually a Giant fork w/ eye guards and an extra tine coming off of the G2.... and the G2 is almost even with the end of the beam!! We will call him Zeus for he carried a mighty Trident!!!! Now I just need him to go figure out how ground check this God of Bucks or his sons!!!! It scores 57 6/8" and as you can see the 16 4/8" beam has the end chewed off. Monster sideracks being found all around me!!! When will it be my turn???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
youngbuck Report post Posted April 14, 2009 Thats crazy. I wonder what the H-3 measurement is, if you scored him as a 3. is the 57 score a 2pt score with extra tine added in? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnnie blaze Report post Posted April 14, 2009 I've always liked the side racks. I killed one about, gebus, 10 years ago. But when I went to have it officially scored they had to score it as a non typical because the G3 was considered the main beam cause the main vein ran down this tine. Which made what looked like the main beam a huge drop tine. This was scored by John Doyle (RIP). Not that it really mattered to me, but for those that want a book buck, be careful on how these cool bucks score. Id shoot it!!!! HAHA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SilentButDeadly Report post Posted April 14, 2009 Gaggers!! I'd have to say you can't do the h3 between the extra tines; it looks like one point erupting from the beam, so you'd have to do 2 out on the end... Who cares though!!?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coues 'n' Sheep Report post Posted April 15, 2009 Thats crazy. I wonder what the H-3 measurement is, if you scored him as a 3. is the 57 score a 2pt score with extra tine added in? Easy boys..... It is scored as a 2 pt..... meaning the mass measurements are taken at the Quarters. It ain't my first time.... ...this one was easy to score..... It has 4 pts but is scored like a Fork...... and still gets 57 6/8! Thanks for the responses! This buck was over 120" and when you hold it in your hands it is a No Brainer!!

I can't figure out how to make sheds look as big as they are when I take pics.... I figured you would chime in and point that out.... the horn is a beast! I had to put a good tape on it this morning since my Bro-in-law wanted it back. I am glad it was here when you stopped by the other day and I have not heard anything about your Muzzy... yet. When you get you gun back I'll try to have Colton's big siderack with me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like a friggin giant to me; look at it compared to the Coke can!!! But I have a fetish for big 2 points anyways Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
