Ok guys I have been trying to figure this out and wanted to see what you guys thought so the antlers spead on a deer to be considered a good size would have to be pretty good if the average deers ear is 6 in and just judging by some skulls I have they are about 4 to 4 1/2 in wide that would put a antlers spread outside the ears to be about 17 or 18 in right so what is considered a good inside spread for a buck.

Somewhere between 24"-36" would be a good antler spread!

They have to be at least as wide as the bases or I'll pass every time.
