campmeat Report post Posted November 5 Sorry to keep you all waiting so long on this. I got my buck late last week and been busy with the family and work stuff. Okay so I learned so much about measuring a buck . First off I learned about inside spread and you don’t measure the widest point of the inside of the antler(greatest spread), you measure the width of the widest point of the main beam(inside spread of main beam )my bad for miss leading you guys on that . I also learned that the Boone and Crockett measure for a perfect symmetrical animal, as some of you had stated. I lost almost 10 inches on his net score because of the extra tine on the one side and unsymmetrical tine length. I love my buck and this doesn’t change my feelings about how amazing he is. I did learn a lot on measuring though . He netted 95 6/8 and grossed 105 2/8. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think very many people know how to score properly and so a normal online 105" is mis represented as a 110 or 115" buck. You truly killed a great looking buck. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CouesPursuit Report post Posted November 5 One of my favorite lines I've read here before, nets are for fish. That is an incredible buck and I know you'll have a perfectly symmetrical 105+ next to him on the wall some day soon! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
