RE: 27- Official Team 27 thread
I finnally got around to entering the score of my buck so we will see what it will be after the .86 deduction. I guess I don't quite understand why the deduction is so much. South Dakotas archery state record muleyis less than 190"so take 190 x .86 = 163.4 and our state record whitetail is alot higher than that. I know personally a guy that killed a 174" whitetail just 3 years ago. Rules are rules I guess. It scores before the x .86 deduction,157 6/8" or 159 7/8" depending on how they do the inside spread. Boone and Crockett says that the inside spread may equal but not exceed the longer antler. Rules say no deductions so it should go by 159 7/8".

Randy, the difference came from an equation from the difference in the P&Y requirements for each species. It's actually dead on.
