My first "Non-Typical" 11 point?
I assume he is a Non-Typical and the way I count them, I see between 9-11 points. Check out the funky plate behind his ear, I tried to hold my hand under it to show it off.
Any thoughts on points and guesses on score?

Many would simply call that a "Rob" buck...lol
I'm not sure about nontypical, but unique He had to have had in injury to the left side of the body to impact the left antler growth.
You can call him what you'd like tho cause, he's yours to do so. Congrats.

Yep, bigcountry and I had that conversation this morning whether he was a Non-Typical or just a mess..LOL.
And I have read as well as been told that the impact due to injury is on the opposite side of the body from the antler.

Wow, he sure does have a unique looking rack.
Congrats!
I'm going to take a guess and say Rob had a typo and meant to say right antler and left side of body, I'm pretty sure it is a proven fact that injuries cause deformated antlers on the opposite side and I'm pretty sure Rob knows that...he has taken (more than?) his fair share of odd racked bucks.
Another thought is I wonder if you damaged the antler itself when it was still in velvet?
In any case...congrats on the buck!!
