Do you mean Boone and Crockett...or since this is the "Bowhunting" forum...do you mean Pope and Young?

There is a right large difference.

Since you are talking about 170 class deer (which for whitetails is well above the minimums for typicals in either catagory.....the answer is no...the record typical in South Carolina, last I checked was in the 176 range (net). Where I live now in VA, they score deer based on gross (BTR) score and the top deer in the state each year in the 8pt and up catagories are almost always at or over 200 regardless of weapon class registered.

I have seen one deer in SC that would have likely netted 140. And I have seen a deer or two in VA that would have netted 165....but I have never knowningly seen anything better.
