Just ask my brother how important net is. He killed a 10pt last year that grossed 148. But after deductions his score of 139 5/8 missed the Indiana Big Buck Book by 3/8 of an inch.

I get your point, gross is quick, but net gets you in the book.
True

But it seems fewer people these days really care about net score or the the book anymore.

Gross score or even just total inches (used in HNI big buck contest) is a much better indicator of the size of rack.

Yeah we all know it's important....but it should be expected to givea gross score. We're not trying to get this guy in the books, just all stating an opinion on howbigwe think the deer is.Calm down partner we get the point.I think most guys give gross scores, unless theyactually say net.

Ithink it's 125 inches...
