    Raining on and off here all morning. Hope to be out hunting this afternoon.

    Twin grandsons hunting here last night. One I was with got a nice big doe. His brother and dad had fawns come in close to his blind but does stayed away. I don't know who was happier my grandson for making a great shot, his mother for getting some meat or me for getting the doe herd thinned down a little lol.

    Bucks are really hitting the scrapes. Still some bucks traveling with other bucks. Deer are really hitting harvested soybean fields.

    Good luck to all the team hunting! IMG_1614.JPG

    Well guys will be getting my pics up here hopefully tonight or tomorrow, but I will be adding 50 points. Went out last night since I had to hold of on Saturday with my son having his birthday. Out of the gate had a great 3 1/2 8 point chilling in front of me and some does, but no shots. The night was one of those that you just stand up since deer are all over. Around 5:45 I had a nub buck that has two kabob skewers coming out of his dang head, and right behind him one big ol nanny doe and a good 1-2 year old doe. The longnose girl moved up and out of shooting range, but her smaller counterpart decided to stroll into range. Was going to take a walking shot, but she stopped so I let her have it. However, right when I touched off she took a step forward so I did hit further back than I would have liked. Tracked her for about 150yds last night, and decided to pull out with lack of a good blood trail. Brother-in-law went in this morning and found her bedded up in a hinge cut I did this spring. Meet in the freezer, but I do owe my BIL a backstrap for gutting her and cleaning her up today while I sit in my office.

    Nothing else.

    Sorry guys, I came down with something, snot everywhere and felt like crap for 2 days. Just now tied my hand at scoring, how do we feel about 77.75” on this deer? I used the furthest is side point for inside spread.

    Talked with one of my certified shed scoring buddies, and he said that the tallest point is most likely your main beam, the inside point is your G-1 and the point coming out of base to the outside is most likely an abnormal point. So you would need to measure 4 mass measurements, the left point (looking at pic) as your G1, middle as your main beam, and right as an added abnormal. Other side score per the usual, 4 mass measurements, G1, G2, G3, G4, main beam. Then your inside spread would be between the middle point of cluster and his strong side.

    @S.McArthur that seems low in my opinion...BUT not a ton less than I'd expect. You got a picture of even your scribbled measurements?

    I should have labeled them, too half is the clean side, bottom is whatever process I used for the ugly side. 2108F8AD-D409-4C44-8C10-0841B4F544DC.jpeg

    I think you did it about as solid as one can for the unique buck you got man. Nothing glaring jumps out at me. I always recommend hide that first measuring, do it clean again once more. If they come in very similar post away....if not repeat a third time blindly.

    Steve,

    I'm trying to understand the bottom half that you said was for the funky side. The decimals throw me off a bit but I can figure that.

    I see the main beam measurement. What are the top measurement and the bottom four measurements and where is the left G1 and abnormal point accounted for?

    I’ll give it another measurement this evening, if I’m in the same boat, I’ll call it fair. I didn’t give an extra 1/8” anywhere, if doubled the good antler, I’d be at 94” minus inside spread. Estimate a 10” spread, and I’d say that would have been close to for two clean antlers. I don’t feel that’s an exaggeration for what’s here.
    I’ll still give it another measurement this evening, off to the pumpkin patch with my son.

    The four at the bottom was mass measurements on the 4 spikes, that’s where I think I’d have a issue. I did them like I would a clean antler.

    I used a tailors tape, not a hard tape measure.

    I might be wrong, but it seems to me that if the inside point on the left is the G1 then the first circumference measurement should be between the burr and the G1 and should be considerably larger than the other three.

    I'm still not seeing the measurements for the left G1 and the abnormal point.
