I can't complain too much. My bear made P&Y (18 1/16"). In fact, I was told to have a second measurer score it. He is about 7' and was over 400 lbs.

Pretty tough to screw up measuring a bear skull....front to back and side to side, not alot to confuse.

I agree and even if the score were off, it wouldn't be by much.

That's what I thought, but I've had 2 people score it and there's a difference of 2.5".

To be 2.5 inches off, I'd say that someone measured it with meat still on the skull, and someone measured it with meat off the skull.

First time in 25 years to be skunked. Too busy at work to get serious this year.
