Well it's offcially scored. Little lower than I thought but still a great rack.

Gross typical is 179 7/8.   :drool:

Net typical is 165 5/8.  :tup:

Made Washington State Records book.  :IBCOOL:

What a great buck.  I would have thought it would have scored a little more too.  With that said, it shows how big those 180" bucks really are.  They are few and far between.  Congrats on both great bucks.   :tup:

Yea right 1/8 off gross 180, I think the mass makes it look bigger than it is. :chuckle:

I thought it was a Non typical, but they scored it as a typical.  :dunno:

I will consider it a 180"   :tup: can someone comment on why this was scored a typical? Just curious.

I am taking a guess the reason why they scored it as a typical is because it wouldn't go 190. To make it in the non typ books it would have to go over the 190 mark assuming this is a rifle buck. Those non typ points don't add up to very much

Has anybody taped the buck's total gross inches?  That's all I ever care about score wise.  I don't see the need to penalize a deer for any inch he grew, whether it be a kicker or a G4 that is two inches longer than the other. :twocents:

Isn't that the gross typical score?  :dunno:

I am new at the scoring system but I believe the Safari scoring system scores everything with no deductions. My deer I took in last year was scored as a non-typical mule deer and ended up with a final score of 171 inches after 16 2/8 inches worth of deductions. I didn't know before this that a non-typical even had deductions counted. If I add the deductions my total is 187 2/8. So if I am correct, in theory I have a 171 Boone and Crocket and a 187 2/8 Safari deer.

Congrats to both of you!  Some deer have a certain "WOW" factor that gets lost in the score, but really stands out in person.  This deer has the wow and the cool factors to make it a trophy anywhere.

Mostly correct, although I'm not sure if Safari Club International measures the same way and Boone and Crockett and Pope and Young.
