Help score this whitetail 10pt?

Nice tine length, some deduct on this between the 3rd
And 4th points. I would put it about 152 gross
And would net high 140's.
Beautiful buck. Hunters I have met over the years
Remind me of of a strong willed political opponent.
We can forget about why we hunt and what it is we love about it. Don't allow anyone to influence your decision to harvest or not to. Its a great buck
Shoot it if you want and enjoy the experience.
Best of luck.
What's the experience? 30, 45 min then squeeze the trigger.
 
As most have said, he's a beautiful animal and congratulations on the opportunity to harvest him. He has great length on both G3's, left G2, and both beams. I believe he will gross, non-typical between 145-155. That is a good number to represent how much antler he has grown. His gross typical and both net scores (non-typical and typical) will be significantly reduced by the difference in his G2 length, the abnormal point (forked left G2) only being on one side, and no G4 on the left side. Personally, I don't care very much about scores (especially net), though I score a bunch a deer as part of my job. I say if the hunter likes the deer and the ranch manager says he's old enough to shoot, then ground check him! Enjoy the hunt (whether you harvest him or not), and please follow up with the hunt results.
 
Low-mid 140s, IMO. Very short G1s help keep him below 150. I can tell from the estimates who here hunts TX and who doesn't. This is not a large deer.

Cedar and prickly pear suggest TX hill country, so live weight is probably 130-170. A really nice deer, would be my personal best by ~6-10", but he looks young. He could really be something in two more years.
 
I'd say 150 ish. He doesn't have much mass and short brow tines. So hard to tell as there's no way to tell body size.
 
a little off track…….
gross score is all that concerns me. If a deer grew it, count it, imo.

I know where a mounted 10 pt is that has a 12-1/2" inside spread. And short G1s. 156-1/2" green. Haven't measured him since the day he was killed.
 
155 to 157 +or- a couple, wish I could see his brow tines a little better.
