2 point with eyegaurds,   only a greenhorn would say different  :twocents:

Explain why.

western tradition,  don't know any old timer,  not one westerner of age that would call it anything different,  except some might just call it a 2 point.

Thats how I learned,  from my grandpa and thats just how it is around here.  Except with transplants and new hunters,  again though only my  :twocents:

No you don't. You could call it an elk if you want, shoot it, and as long as it's deer season and you put your deer tag on it, it's legal.

Thats what I was wondering.   Imagine at 100 yards......   What if they were short?

The state accepts eyeguards in the count total for point restricted, but they do identify eye guards indivdually as opposed to just calling them points as seen in the following copied from the hunting regs, pg 18.

3 Pt. Minimum:
A legal deer taken in these GMUs must have at
least 3 antler points on one side. A 3x3, 3x2, or
3x1 are legal in a 3 pt. min. unit. Antler points
must be at least one inch long, including eye
guards.


2 point with eyegaurds,   only a greenhorn would say different  :twocents:

Explain why.

western tradition,  don't know any old timer,  not one westerner of age that would call it anything different,  except some might just call it a 2 point.

Thats how I learned,  from my grandpa and thats just how it is around here.  Except with transplants and new hunters,  again though only my  :twocents:

Easiest explaination there is I'd say, western deer were always "x number of points" noting with or w/out eyeguards and whitetail were all points counted.   

Well you have to call it a 3 point to shoot it  :tung:

You can call it what you want, just telling you what has been around since "Back in the day!"  Man, I feel old now....  :bash:

But at any kind of distance, would be very leerly of letting one fly just because of their size and location...at least with my eyes...DOH!!  There I go again, feeling old...   :DOH:

Actually you don't.  I'm fairly certain the regulations say it must have three points on one side of the antlers.  That doesn't say you have to shoot a three point or better.  That's a term endeared by people.  In the Western Hemisphere, it's a 2 point with eye guards.  Period.
