What do you think my deer will score?

Without knowing a width I'm guessing high 130's low 140's, pope and young typical is based off total symmetrics and a lot of times it can be deceiving. basically measure the smallest side and multiply it by 2 for a rough estimate. I've killed over a dozen 140's that I thought would make it over 150 but after paying a certified P&Y measurer (scorer) for several of them the deductions literally kill the scores on the larger side of the rack.

You had to pay to get animals scored? B&C is free.

Deductions are the biggest bunch of petty bullshit in "trophy" scoring. Every inch should count with no penalty for it looking weird! Men would insist on that in any other area of their life!

Low 140s gross would be my guess. Nice buck!

There is a fee to enter, and while B&C is now free due to a donation, it hasn't always been free. Most Official Measurers will not score an animal that the individual doesn't plan to enter, hence the fee to the prospective club (entry fee).

Yes, there is a small fee for P&Y scoring here, there’s only one guy around that does it the last one I had scored and he’s 40-50 miles from me.

The Official Measurer cannot charge a fee, he is a volunteer. So, by "small fee" I hope you are talking about the entry fee of 40$.

Agree with everyone else that was in that 140 ballpark. Nice buck.
