Damnation. I'd rather kill that thing then a 240" non-typical.

Y'all don't count points like I do... I see 9 or 10.

From the article:

quote:

“His hide and cape were in just great shape. I had the feeling he didn’t get challenged much by other bucks in the neighborhood.”

Yeah, I'd say that's pretty spot on.


and iron sights FTW

If you hold those stickers up at just the right angle you can hang a ring on 'em.

People count differently. I don't know why it bothers you so much that some people count more than just the main tines.

It doesn't bother me either way. It's personal preference.


For the record, I'd call that one an 8pt also

No, some count wrong. It bothers me bad. It's an embarrassment to the hunting community. Makes us look dumb.

What does "Jim killed a 17 point" tell you? Not one damn thing. "Jim killed a 9 point with a bunch of stickers" tells you a lot.

If clip for magazine is a 6, courting everything you can hang a ring on is a 10.

A lot of old timers and true rednecks where I'm from are always talking about this "13 point" his cousin's buddy shot out at tha farm or this 19 point someone the next county over done shot off tha road. If I shoot a non typical, I'll usually refer to it as a main frame 6/8/10 with whatever else it has whether it's a kicker or drop. Either way doesn't bother me.

ETA: Just give me a gross score number, and that pretty much covers the type of deer you've got.
