Nontypical is classed as any point not orginating from the main beam in an upright/regular fashion. So this means forked points, droptines, kickers, stickers, etc are classified as abnormal or nontypical growth. So yes a sticker can be classified non-typical however it would be more likely classified a typical with the sticker coming in as a deduction off the net score but can be scored both(as mentioned most will opt for the typical score vs nontypical with a few kickers as they don' t add up to much towards a higher min. for NT to make book) The number of tines per side do not indicate a nontypical rack (symetry has nothing to do with the classification), just a lot to due with the final score. ie: a 4x5 or 5x6 will be scored as a typical!!!! Basically think of it as a 4x4 or 5x5 (as long as the tines(g' s) orginate on the main beam and go some what upward) the missing G' s spot or tine will result in a deduction of the extra tine length off the net score!

3 antlered deer are not scorable, consider freaks of nature and therefore have no classifaction in official scoring books.
