I would argue that the deers left antler makes it legal to shoot, not the right antler.... 

2 point with eyeguard. The guy who drops this deer call it a 3x3 at their own peril. :chuckle:

Ok, ok chew on this. You are in a 3 pt. minimum area, so if you shoot it, you are agreeing that the deer is a 3 point  :chuckle:

You can call it Fred or Rudolph or whatever but in Washington it is legal in a 3 point minimum area.

Legal six pointer all the way!


I would call him, like others, a 2x with enough to make him legal to shoot for meat. Nice looking deer regardless...healthy and doing his thing. Witht he junk on the bases he could be very cool in a few years.

I grew up in Texas.. So I'd either call it a 6pt, or a 4pt w/ eyeguards.. We count all the points down there.. As does the rest of the country except maybe wa, id, and or. I never heard of counting only half the rack til I got here.

I wonder what they call mountains in Texas.  I've seen what they call em back east. :chuckle:   Better adapt man, we'll laugh you right out of deer camp. :)
