For a 6 pointer you would measure the length of the beam from the center line of the g-2 to the end of the main beam and mark equal distances from the center line of the g-2 towards the tip for the h-3and that distance again towards the tip fir the h-4.
example: center of g-2 to the tip = 6"
h-3 taken 2" from the center of the g-2
h-4 taken 2" from the h-3
I do know that this is incorrect.....
There is two ways to measure a 3X3 and it all depends if it has brow tines or not....
If it has brow tines you measure H1-H3 the same as always and then use your H3 measurement as your H4 as well.
[/align]If there is no brow tine youtake the circumference measurement at the smallest point between the burr and "G2" and use this measurement as the H1 and theH2. Then take the H3 and H4 as normal.

I found my P&Y "hunters guide" the yesterdayand what I listed is the correct way to measure the circumference measurements on racks of these configurations.
There is no mention however on a spike..... If you would out of curiosity, could you still ask your official measurer the proper procedure for a spike?
