I have no idea what the deer in the picture scores but I went out and bought a seamstress tape today and measured a rack I had that I was surewas right about 115 maybe even a little better. The tape said it was 101.
It's no wonder I don't measure/score them because I always thought that 101 was fine deer.
He is a fine deer, and no less of a fine deer at 101 than he was when you thought he was 115. I know that all the videos and P&Y and B&C stuff get us wrapped up in numbers, but to me I know what a good buck is in my eyes. Whether his number is above or below what I thought he would score makes him no less of a good buck.
I have fun guessing scores, but try not to get too wrapped up in it.
