Is This a 170 Class Buck?

So I'm not very good at the live animal field judging thing. I was at the cemetary that I like to go to during my lunch breaks a couple of days ago. I was expecting to see several small bucks that had been rutting the does. I was happily discouraged to find all the smaller bucks were gone. The buck in the pictures below had run them off and was rutting the does. I went back today with my camera hoping to get pics of him. I was surprised that he was letting all the smaller buck hang around.

Anyways I'm guessing that this buck is a low to mid 170" buck. Those that know better please pipe in.

I think that he would pushing 170. I also think that is the same buck in the spring picture. It's good to see a nice one moving to take over the breeding too.

I think your guess is pretty close, I think he goes right near 170" or high 160's. But I'm no expert either.

I'd say he's pushing the 170" mark. Great looking buck and could be a stud in a couple years! Man, I want to be buried there! :)

I'd agree right in the 170's from the limited amount of measuring I've done. Whatever he scores he is beautifully symetrical with some nice deep forks. I love that in a rack. What Cemetery is that? If that's okay to ask????

I would say right around 170, maybe a little under.

This deer was 166 1/2 net. It might not be quite as wide, but the G2's and G3's are a good bit taller.
