Here is my lone submittal from GA. 160" gross, (if we are fishing then 146") by my measurements and the B&C Spreadsheet.

My best whitetail, never scored but I would be surprised if he did not make 130, but could be a 120 class????



Best set of antlers, officially scored 214 4/8 and will be in the B&C book

I hadn't measured my deer on page one in a while so I did it to see what I would come up with, he was officially scored through B&C by a taxidermist at 134 3/8" I came up with 132" so close enough maybe due to some shrinkage after 16 years
He's a bit narrow at 13.5" but he's a pretty tall and heavy 10pt.


Just gonna do a little simple math on what it takes to get a 130" 8 Point

42" Main Beams
16" Inside Spread
Left MB mass 5", 4", 3.5", 3"
Right MB mass 5", 4", 3.5, 3"
5" Brow tines
9" G2s
7" G3s

131" Gross

Thats a fricking man of an 8 point, and they have them but it seems like you can tell when you see them.


Edited because I'm an idiot

You're short a mass measurement. Always use 4 mass measurements regardless of the number of tines.

On an 8 it's the halfway point between the G3 and end of the main beam. If you want to score a spike you would take the measurement between the burr and end of the spike and use it 4 times

Thanks boys, all were shot in Kansas. None of mine are any more impressive than some of the mature LA deer posted though imo. Got to set your trophy standards for where you hunt. KS has some studs so i'm fortunate to have hunted there the last 12 years.


Any guesses on the scores?

I'm not familiar with a deer by that name




Sorry, not him but looks a lot like a deer killed at Giles a couple of years ago.

You're right. I've been scoring deer with 3 mass measurements regardless of how many points they have for 10 years

Lots of pretty deer in this thread.

Georgian, that is just a beautiful damn deer. Wow. Love it.

I have never thought a deer had to be high scoring to be a great deer. Unfortunately, to hunt a lot of managed property you have be able to score one accurately.

Yes I have, and who wouldn't like to add an extra 4-5"

Doesn't change much, I'm gonna keep trying to shoot 3.5yo old bucks regardless of what how they score.
