He was scored as a typical because that is what he is.  Line E doesn't matter unless it is going to put you at the 215'' mark.  So his gross score as a typical would be lines 1-3 added which would give you your gross typical score. Subtract line 4 which are your differences and you get your final typical score.  You could say his gross non-typical score is 181 4/8 but since he will not make it as a NT it does not matter.  Yes you do get deductions in the NT category because they still measure it as a typical frame deduct the differences and then add line E.  Below is a picture of a buck that is not in the book because he will not hit the 215'' mark.  His " Gross NT score" as you would add it would be 199 5/8.  Yeah it sucks, but that is the way it is with B&C.  I wonder if MM wants an update as to the official score?  171'' is still a great buck!

Not a chance in hell that buck in that picture grosses 199 5/8!  Who came up with those numbers?!

 The buck in your Picture really isn't 199 5/8 because it won't make the book as a non typical, and it definately isn't 199 5/8" typical.

I agree! back the f off! the majority of folks on here couldn't even find deer of this caliber and someone is getting crap for not being a cert. scorer! I could care less if the guy told me it was 387 1/8 or 76 7/8 I would still think it was a monster! BTFO

I thought that you wanted to learn how to score?  So I took the time and explained how it is done, but apparently you did not want ot listen to what I had to say.  When you post something such as a score, don't you think that you would want to know how its done and explain weather it was B&C, SCI or whatever?  190,189,185,182,179 and 171, there is quite a few numbers there.  Yes, all that matters is you guys had a good hunt and that the hunter was happy with his buck. It was a stud.  Don't get your shorts in a knot, people like looking at the photos you share.

The buck in the pic was scored at the Puyallup show last year.  I measured it before it went down there and was 2/8 short of there score.  Obviously he does not make the book as typ or non-typ.
