Help scoring a buck please
« on: September 15, 2018, 07:11:47 PM »
So I got this buck Sept 2nd 2012 in washington. In an area where they all have blacktail tails but seem to all be benchlegs. For some reason today I decided to throw a tape on it which I never done before on any deer. I been using the https://www.boone-crockett.org scoring worksheet. Where I'm a little confused is the location on the g2's on the right and left side. Last two pictures I added a label on what I think is the g2. Please let me know if I'm right or wrong please. If I am wrong please point me in the right direction thank you

Thanks but that link shows a straight forward 4x4 on top. Since mines a 5x5 on top I'm confused on which one is the abnormal point  which one is the g2.

But which point is the abnormal point on the right side to me it looks like the rear 10 inch point would be abnormal.

I get all of that those are 4x4 and straight forward mine is an inline 5x5 one of those points has to be an abnormal point from my under standing. Both sides grow differently based on where they fork so I'm confused on which on on the right side would be considered the abnormal inline. I don't think it makes a difference on a gross score but for a net score I believe it make a big difference on this buck and thanks for you help and replies

Ok I found attachment one which I think shows me my thinking on the abnormal point is right. Attachment two and three is what i came up with i suppose I should of just went hunting today. Instead I messed around with this and making bear jerky. Thanks for your help guys much appreciated.
