Default RE: What a bunch of garbage...

Don't get me wrong, I am abig fan of B&C, P&Y and Ohio Big Buck Club. However,I've always thought that it was strange to give a deer credit for the inside spread. Why give a deer credit for the "air" between his main beams? The only thing in my opinion that should receive credit towards the score should be the actual inches of antler growth! I've always thought about doing some crazy type of scoring, almost like a "water displacement"method.This way it measures the amount of total space taken up by the antlers. Deer with lots of mass in the tines and all the way out to the end of theirmain beams can be counted towards something! I would be curious to see how the record books would change if such a scoring method existed. I'm sure the Milo Hanson Buck would lose its number one position to a more massive typical!
