My brothers 2007 buck

My brother Brad took a nice buck opening day of Idaho’s general rifle season. From a half mile Brad watched it bed down just as it was getting light enough to see. He kept an eye on it for an hour to make sure it did not move and then came over to find me. I was able to find him in the spotting scope and recognized him as a buck I call Charlie. Pictures #1 and #2 show Charlie bedded down.

We moved a little closer and ranged him at 450 yards. I stayed there to watch him and Brad circled around the mountain to approach Charlie from above. The below picture shows Brad about 150 yards from Charlie.

The below picture shows Brad and Tyler about 60 yards above Charlie.

Finally at less than 30 yards Charlie winded Brad and started to run down hill. Brad took a 40 yard shot and hit Charlie on the run but it was little far back. He is a great buck. Including the kicker Charlie is 29" wide and I came up with a rough score of 168" gross.

I'm not an expert at photo judging but I think you might have
shorted yourself by atleast 10". It looks like it to me anyways.
