I can agree with this on 2 maybe 3 instances but will say no names[8D]
Good luck guys! The best is yet to come in the next few weeks. I am sure we will have a few real good ones entered in the next month.

This is for fun people, pictures can be deceiving, I would hope that no one would knowingly add inches. Some look bigger than they score some look smaller.

That is exactly right, pictures can be decieving. I only had a question on one, I redid the possible score in my head and I was close...when he sent me other pictures...I had no doubt....I think we're right on with all of them thus far.

Just an fyi... I am having mine scored by someone other than myself. I would rather have it scored accurately then have it be questionable.
Just something to consider... it is much easier to question a small rack buck then a large rack buck. You can easily add 10-15" on some big rack bucks and no one would ever doubt it. Try it with a small buck and it will be questioned 9 times out of 10.
Let's just have fun. There's nothing to win and all in good fun.

Scoring seems to me a bit strange.
Compare Lefty26's 7 point that scores half of ToddGraf's Monster. Yet Todd's rack is easily 4 times larger. (just as comparison only - nothing insinuated here at all)
I'd like to see a scoring system that is more representative of the true size. For example, scoring by volume / points / then spread - as in how much volume would the antlers displace in a tub of water, then how many points, then spread.
So Todd's deer would score something like: 5000/8/17
(5000ml water displaced / 8 points / 17" spread) paints a better picture to me than 143 6/8
Lefty's would score: 980/7/4
