I posted some info. and a picture of a guys deer that hunts about 2 miles from my property early in the year. At the time, it was thought to be one of the largest "8 points" taken in Mississippi.
Well the official MS. scoring is in, and he made the record books, not as an 8 point, but a 13 point.
This deer grossed 176 2/8 and netted a score of 156. Dang shame for the deducts, because it truly takes away from a great deer. The B & C scoring system takes away to much. I would love to have this buck on my wall!!!
There was a lot of commotion over this deer and was scored many different ways. One scorer had it at 165. Anyway, the point is, B & C scoring does not do justice to the kill.
Here's a pic...
and here is the original pic than ran in the paper and was circulating via the internet....
The pic was totally deceiving, as you can see. But still a great deer!
