Holy crap that is a monster!
Jerry and his family have taken a lot of really nice deer over the years, so I'm sure he knows how to measure a deer. Most deer are around 22-23" ear to ear, however, just like humans, not all deer are the same and it takes a wide range of measurements to get an "average". Anatomy books talk about an average of 4-6" of certain parts of the male anatomy...take that for what it is worth...so without seeing a tape measure, knowing the quality of deer he and his family have taken, I'll take him at his word.
