I enter all my bucks into P&Y. I prefer gross score as it more closely describes the size of the rack. I use the numbers only as a descripter. The net score, for me is only a means to make the book. When I am describing a huge buck that I saw to a friend I always use the gross.

In this pic, the buck on the right grosses 126 4/8 and nets125 4/8. quite symetrical. It field dressed at 160. Pretty deer. Gross, net what's the difference?

The buckinthe center grosses 138 and nets 116 as a 6 pointer. It actually has 9 points and field dresses at 220. He was the boss of the area and a real bull. On this one I think that gross better describes him, especially if you're talking over the phone!!

Which would you prefer? ................. I liked them both, so I shot them.[8D]
