How many points would you put on each side based on the three photos? He is located in a 3 point min area, not that it should influence your count!

It qualifies as a spike if that's what you are looking for, but you can count points below the ears as antler points

There are two answers, how many points a warden counts and how many points I would claim if someone asked me in a social setting.

I count 1 cause it’s a spike with an eye guard. No changing that.

Atleast a 2x2 likely 3 countable points on its right. They are pretty liberal on what’s a point.

That's a Lewis County 1 point single eyeguard.
