DesertBull Report post Posted January 7, 2008 I'm not much on scoring antlers, but that middle one looks WAY bigger than 110" to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coach Report post Posted January 7, 2008 I agree on the "way over 110" comment. That is a kong and it looks pure whitie to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Browning'sCustomMeat Report post Posted January 7, 2008 sure looks like a whitetail.....but then them eyeguards.....pretty pewney from the other points and other racks. Maybe a hybrid? Possible, and possibly a whitie. All in all, definitely BIG!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wklman Report post Posted January 8, 2008 look at the size of the head. i'd say theres a good possibility its a hybrid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redbeard Report post Posted January 8, 2008 Should be pretty easy to tell by comparing the sizes of the skull and teeth. Also Mulies have a much deeper "dent" in the side of the nose in front of the eye. FWIW I compared the skull and tooth/jaw size of the 117" coues I just killed and a 93" I shot a couple years ago and they are identical. They don't grow bigger heads just bigger antlers.

GRONG Report post Posted January 8, 2008 Need a better close-up of that skull and hide. Looks a little on the muley side to me IMO. Redshwanz is right about the skulls too. No difference in a 200" coues head to a 90" head. I think to many people are quick to throw out the ol "hybrid" word when there's been few actually documented that actually were. Got any better pics?
