re: Cross y'all's fingers for me

I was just messing with you. Although tip to tip doesn't count in the score, if you were submitting it to B&C you are required to send tip to tip measurement to make sure all the measurements make sense, or something like that.

Nevertheless, fine deer you killed sir. You should be proud of him. I would be.

I agree with trying not to inflate numbers. I killed a really big deer a couple weeks ago and the only thing I personally measured was inside spread. A friend and my dad measure the rest and came up with almost the same number two times. It didn't really matter to me, and I didn't want to tell people that big number and have anyone speculate I may have been dishonest.
