That one is easy to measure, Just measure the length of the main beam, then the length of the brow tine and then the length of the other point. Then the circumference of the base and the circumference between the brow tine and the second point. Add them up and thats the score. Pic is awlful big ,but I woud quess at 32

Looks like he was trying to have a drop tine. I shot a beaut last fall that had something similar on his left side. Looked like an injury while in the early growth stages that ended up forking off into about a 3 inch droptine. Kinda cool. Looks nice on the wall.

Nice find. Well done.

Sorry was only scoring the first pic. with the second side at 38 and quessing a inside width of 14 ,because there just aint much mass and probably would say it was 2 1/2 year old.32+38+14=84. People Dont realize What kind of size antlers it takes to make p&y 125 OR booner at 180.I was fined the first time I went on a hunt where only bucks 150 and better were allowed to be shot I thought it was a record buck and only scored 133. It had 10 points 18 inch spread and cost me a extra500.00 and a mad land owner who said I was never welcome back. Since then I have practiced and scored over 400 racks for other people and judging them alive and on the hoof is really hard AS A HOBBY.NEVER JUDGE A LIVE BUCK FROM A REAR VIEW.

CD you are very correct. For an 8pt It has to be well beyond the ears and very tall tines to make it to 125. It has to be a WOW 8 pt. Most 10 pts will make it to 125.

Is that a 4 point? It has 5 points. The two pictures show you two different sides. One has a nub and one has another point.

If you can hang a ring off of it it's considered a point .
