Yes an eyeguard is a point. I don't think anybody disputes that. But that buck is still a 4 point buck. With eyeguards. Yes, that does give it 5 points on each side. But it's a 4x4 w/eyeguards. That's just the way they are described and it's always been that way.

That's exactly right and cannot be explained any better. Can't even understand how this keeps comming up.

If the state says anything over an inch I count anything over an inch.

Well a spike bull elk with 2 eye guards on the same side is not a three point in this state.  The state just says its a two point.

10 point buck in my book

well technically by the rules in the regs that is a 5x5 but old school count 4x4 it is harder to judge body size on him but i would guess 150 lbs tops whole.

if your going to start siding with the crazy officials of this state, which I would highly suggest you think hard about...  that it could be considered a 5x5 but it it will always be a 4x4 with eyegaurds to me!

I don't know what 150 lbs whole is ... but live weight is over 230 lbs for sure. Great looking buck!

I would be thrilled to add him to our island genetics!!!  See if you can lure him into a utility trailer and I'll come get him.

Great looking buck, thanks for sharing the pics. 

Yeah 4x4-5x5, I personally would call it a 4 point with eye gaurds but what would your harvest reports say. It would say 5 points on the left and 5 point on the right. Let him call it what he wants, you guys are way to critical.
