I'm also for the gross score, that is what he really scores IMO. Very cool idea for your dad too. I have three outdoor tats, one is a ruffed grouse, one is a brook trout, and the third is a whitetail skull. I moved to IL three years agoand was really missing home in the UP of michigan, and these are the three things I pursued up there, so they kind of symbolize that chapter of my hunting carreer. My next one is a strutting tom turkey, kind of the new chapter here in IL.
