RE: P&Y discussion continued......
after I shot my first buck with a bow, I made up my mind that i wouldn't shoot another until it made pope and young. When i got one last year it was very exciting for me to have it entered in the book. I don't know if I would spend the time and money to get others entered in the future. Although it is a good excuse to see the pope and young scorer's amazing trophy room.
As far as the scoring goes i think they should keep the conventional scoring method, but also score bucks by calculating the volume of the antlers. This would show the true 'massiveness' (for lack of a better term) of the antlers and could be easily and quickly done.
