Poll: Legal in 4pt area or not?

[bearpaw]

This buck was killed in an any buck area, but when I saw the rack up close I thought it would be fun to ask if it would be legal in a 4 point or better area? I'll post the correct answer after a few days.

Looks like 2x3.....maybe 3x3

Just by definition in the regulations the (Bucks) Right side is obviously a three but the Left is really messed up. The little eye guard at the base does not look an inch long on the long side, and the broken off piece looks sketchy as well it is closer to an inch than the eye guard, but no dice he walks

3x2 to me that one horn is broke and can't tell what it would have been.
The one small one one, or eyeguard that side isn't at least an inch long so no.
Broke off tine looks as if it could of been two points at one time but not now.
so by WDFW's description is that all points or the point that is to be used to make it a 4pt 3pt 2pt whatever has to be at least an inch long.
eyeguard isnt it's only about a 1/4 inch long even counting the broke tine as one it would still only go a 3x3
3x2 to me though.

I don't see four points on either side. That eye guard looks too small to be 1.0"+

When I hunted in New Mexico some locals told me "if you can hang a ring on it, then its a point."

For the broken chunk of main beam to count as a point it would have to not only be an inch, which it probably is, but would have to be longer than it is wide, which it most definitely is not.  not legal.

I'm going with not legal.

[Ridgerunner]

This will be interesting.  First off I disagree with the rule of the point has to be an inch to count, the buck has an eye guard and the main beam that got broke was clearly over an additional inch long at some point. The buck should be legal under the four point rule but is he ??

[zwickeyman]

If the eye guard is 1" long, then yes

You disagree with the rule that a point has to be an inch to count?  It says it very clearly in the regs, even has a little picture to go with it.  And "was" an inch is speculative and irrelevant.  It has to be an inch.

that is how some people used to define a point, just like some people don't count eye guards cause that's what gramps said.
on topic, I'd say nope

[Ripper]

Yes he is legal.

[Band]

The broken tip looks like it might be over 1" but the eye guard looks a little shy of 1".  No way am I taking that shot!

[h20hunter]

I think on the ground with tape to confirm point lenghts, yes he might be legal.

On the hoof, with only optics to judge, I think you pass on that shot because I just don't see how you could know for sure.

[fireweed]

Either way too small to shoot esp in 4 pt area.
