Please help with gross score

[Trackselk]

I'm fairly new to chasing mature mules, although I have taken lots of young meat bucks for decades. Anyhow, didn't realize that I had anything all that great until my buddy helped me realize I have a 30" buck. Curious on the gross score roughly.

For reference:
30 1/8" Outside spread.
There are 2 1"+ points if the gnarly nubs by the skull count, and 2 more hidden by the velvet. And his eye guards are over 3&4" .

thanks for any guidance!

Outside spread means nothing for the score, and your inside spread measurement on the main beams only counts up to your mb length so if you have an inside spread of 24” between your main beams but main beams are only 21”. Your score for inside spread is only 21”. Quick guess you have a high 160 low-mid 170s buck. Hard to tell on pictures of course especially the exaggerated angles on these pics. Best way is to just measure it not that hard to do google b&c score sheet for mule deer and write in the measurements and add them up on the score sheet. A soft tape or a scoring cable will usually get you pretty close. Follow the directions on the sheet to know where you stop measuring and what counts towards total score. Either way damn nice deer the velvet and character are cool.

To take the comment above 1 step further the Boone and Crockett website has a score calculator where you type in the measurements and it does all the math for you and spits out a gross and net score.

Looks 170ish to me. Big enough

Thanks fellas! I'll go find my soft tape and check out the calculator when I have a chance.

I'm liking these numbers, maybe I won't measure
You know how pics can lie...

I have one with a very similar look. 31” wide, good mass, avg beams, longer eye guards and G4’s but more crabby forks in back. He’s 174”. Yours is right there give or take a few inches imo.
