Heres how I do it. In Whitetail=10points converts toMule deer 5x5 which converts to elk as 5x5 of course this depends on how many points on each side of course. Whitetail is the only thing i use the point system on and I live in WI. We dont call a 10 point buck here a 5x5 or 6x4 or what ever its just points.
