To make that 125 P&Y minimum, that baby better be scoring 135-140 green.
I think you are confusing "gross score" with "green score". The drying period willnot shrink a rack
anywhere near that much.
EDIT: sorry I was late on that one.
GregH, you don't subtractabnormal points, youjust don't get to add them. The wholeprocess is to add them, and then subtract them, thus equallingout to a zeroeffect. Yes, it is rediculous. I may have misunderstood what you were saying though.
There was an article from the head of records for P&Y saying that a 200" monster with 8 stickers that nets 170" (I am making up these #'s I don't remember exactly whatmeasurements he used)is "a lesser deer" than a perfectly symmetric 10-point that measures 176" and nets 172". There is something wrong with that IMO.
GregH is correct...abnormal pointsare subracted from the gross score in order to come up with the net so it is a deduction that does lower the net score.These points are not added to the gross before being subtracted. This happend on the last buck that I entered into P&Y. It had a kicker on the G2 and a sticker next to one of the brow tines. Abnormalpointsare never added to the score unless using non-typical scoring. Normal tines that come off the main beam without a match onthe other side are NOT abnormal points and these would be added...then subracted resulting in the zero effect.
