This makes me wonder...how common are non-typicals and how many of us have taken one. This is my second in 4 years.
I might have to post a poll.

Looks to me like on the messed up side, the beam with points coming off of it would be your main beam. just measure all the others starting from the base as your G1, G2, etc. you can go to the boone and crockett website and they have a thing where you can just take all of your measurements and plug them in and it will calculate the score for you.
basicly your measurements are as follows: greatest inside spread, main beam lengths, length of points and circumfrences.
good luck and congrats on the buck!

How do I handle the second large horn (G3)? Would it still be measured as a Main Beam.
Assume all others would be abnormal points.

Strange looking fella that's for sure, congrats.
I'd like to ask a question about the shot. Did that shot enter on the right side forward of the shoulder and come out through the left shoulder? Did you get both lungs or just the left? What broadhead are you shooting if you don't mind me asking?

Definatley got the left lung as he had foamy blood out of his nose and mouth when I got to him. Not 100% about the right lung.
Shot was 25 yards away and I was about 25' high in the tree. I was using a Slick Trick 100 mag.

I would say score it as an abnormal and not a second main beam, although it kinda looks like that. It seems to definately be coming out of the main beam as an abnormal and not a second main beam coming from the skull. Just my opinion, but I don't have a huge experience at non-typicals like this one. If you find out different, let me know. Always want to learn new things.
Good Luck

That is such a cool right side.....I would sure like to bag a non typical...The path of the arrow, although not ideal, did its work thanks to that slick trick. Again, nice buck, congratulations and thanks for taking time to respond to my question.
