    I need some input because I don't know all of the rules on scoring.

    Normally it's a no brainer to get the inside spread, but on this rack where would you measure to on the left side main beam?

    The measure location is easy on the right side. If I measure straight across the rack the inside spread is 16 5/8"

    If I measure further out which is still inside the main beam it's 17 5/8"

    I just want to make sure I do this right. IMG_3637.jpg

    widest point on the main beam from side to side is how I do it

    Never mind. I did some research and found the answer. It's the widest point between the beams on a line "perpendicular to the skull", so I guess on a rack that's shaped like this you can't measure at an angle for a wider measurement even though it is wider and still inside the beams.
