Title: Recomended Scorers
Post by: timberghost72 on January 21, 2012, 11:42:31 AM: I'm looking for recomendations on B&C scorers. I have a few names from the B&C website and am just curious if there is anyone that has recomendations. Also is there anyone else I should be looking at? I live near Everett.

Thanks Tony

I have a guy come to my shop to measure for B & C, but I am down in the Maple Valley area. What do you have, and are you sure it will make Boone and Crocket? I usually measure things before I have the official guy come out so I'm not wasting his time. Be happy to do that for you but I'm sure you can find someone closer.

Mine was 1 5/8 off from the original guy, that left pencil marks on my trophy head! Next time i went to enter in the contest, they noticed it was way off, bumping me to 99th Whitetale mod typical, now, who knows, LOL

Buzzy teaches classes for scoring records, if your close to North Bend, he would be the most accurate.

Good luck, he will score dandy!

I took mine in on a Sunday. I dropped it off with them, and picked it up 45 min. later. That was in Monroe 4-5 years ago. I'm not sure if it's the same now.
My deer was no where near a B&C, and I new that going in. I just wanted to know what it scored (119 1/8).

That's a dandy! Any mature deer is great in my book.
