Ok, so I'm guessing here. Abnormal points are any points not originating off of the main beam?
Also, the differences between right and left are deducted from the overal score for the Typical score and kept in for the non-typical? Are the abnormal points kept in for the typical score as well? I've been adding up some of the numbers in your chart trying come up with that the Gross/Net and typical/non-typical scores include.
Net typical includes all typical points, then subtract all side to side differences andany abnormal points.
Gross non-typical includes every inch of antler no deductions.
Net non-typical includes the gross typical score, minus the side to side differences, but then you add on any abnormal points.

How would you score this point? As an abnormal or as the G3? I would consider it an abnormal point.......which I believe is correct, but I could be wrong.

Steve,
It doesn't have to come off a point to be abnormal, it can come off the mainbeam. Only the tip is broken a little bit, not the whole point.
This is one that has always confused me.

I'll ask the guy that does my measuring from the P@Y this question you have. I'll be seeing him late Dec or early Jan when I get my buck measured. I'll let you know!

I am going to leave you hanging a bit longer on your other question....
That's just how I roll....
