From the picture alone I don't either and that's why I'm not going to make guesses on pictures any more since this one was actually scored!

Seriously you guys don't see it? I even missed a circumference measurement that would have added 3 more inches. In one of these pics I have a G2 pressed against my shirt. I don't know what else to do lol.

Definitely looks bigger in those pictures than the OP.

29 inch main beams is a pretty big deal. I would still never guess almost 29 inches on that left side.

The main beams is where I'm off. I would have guessed about 25 on the right and 22 on the left......which is about a 12 inch difference.

I'll just make a video of me measuring them someday soon. It's really no big deal. But yes, 29 inches is no joke. 29 2/8 and 28 6/8. I used a cable and carefully ran the length of the beams from base to tip and then measured it on a measuring tape. Even used pencil! lol.

RR- 3x3? :P It's a 6x4 and I'm not even counting the broken brow. There are 2 stickers that are both at least 1 2/8 on the right base but all that does is hurt the score a little bit. I guess you could call it a 4x4 if you wanted, but not a 3x3. Love this forum lol.

yep, missing browtine on the one side, means the other browtine is a deduct, the other side the g4 is also a deduct, broken tines will also cause some deducts. If the broken brow tine is over 1" then possibly a 4x4

I'm not calling you a liar. You don't have to prove anything to me.

I said the main beams is where I'M off.

Its just shows how easy it is to be way off scoring a picture.

In those last pictures it sure looks pretty big to me. I can't imagine it missing P&Y with those beams and mass.
