Score this 8

From several years ago.

Seeing as you knuckleheads want to argue over a stupid deer how much is this one. It's been officially scored by a certified BandC scorer. Take note the girls don't feel the need to stretch their arms out as far as possible lol.

Mass measurements will be tough !!but I’ll give it a shot
So won’t be any confusion I’ll GUESS gross and net

141 gross
134 net
. Hard to judge mass in pic

I think 10" more than Jbyrd.

I think that deer will gross around 152. His beauty points down near the base will score. I don't care about net.

Unfortunate thing IMO about the BC scoring system is that is does not give the deer credit for how much bone is on his head; its more of a measure of symmetry. The mass of those tines, and how he carries the mass all the way out to the end of his beam ought to count for something.

Its why I'm in favor of a water displacement scoring method. Tells you how much bone is on the deer's head. Take that measurement and then just add the spread. IMO, it gives the deer credit for what he grew rather than how pretty he is.

I have a 139" 8 point on the wall with 33" of mass. I gave Steven's deer 34" of mass.

All I know is that ya'lls deer up there are some hairy rascals! Our deer here have hides, ya'lls got fur!

147.5" very impressive buck congrats to the young lady.

When they are done guessing yours Steven, I'm going to have them score this 8....

Looks like there may be 5 scoreable points on the left side. I think deductions will be much higher.

152 gross
143 net


ADC, that almost looks like a hybrid.

146 for both

Yea, looks almost like a SIKA elk.

150ish gross heck of a deer!

140”

143 7/8 net.
150 gross.

Gotta 100 point deduction for not stretching the arms right?

I’m scoring it 24” x 40” . Space the head mount should be taking up on the smiling young ladies wall.

Osky

* edited to add wearing the Cabelas label can be considered a deduction these days as well. We’ll give that deduction to dad.

136 gross

After all the additions and subtractions I say “Dats a nice one and a happy girl, WIN WIN!!”

138

Is that the one I saw several years ago on the wall at your place.?
remember guys that there probably some Canadian blood in that deer's history

146 Gross
Heck of a nice buck. Congrats.

Great 8 pt love the nice 8s with mass

Really nice mature buck, not built to score well. Congrats to the hunter. Probably hit 150 gross, ignore the net on that one.

153

I'm not looking at the correct buck pic. The pic I see is of a young girl with a buck that has at least 9 points, not 8.

Probably referring it as a main frame 8 junk as deductions, I prefer a gross score only and give the deer credit for antler growth

10 point ifin you count that little fella growing off the base

49 gross
42 net

200 bonus plus on delicious

What did it score????

Haha, I’ll give him 38” on beams
40” mass
16” spread
40” tines

134”

Good thing you got that mutant out of the gene pool
before it got the chance to breed and pass on
it's mongoloid antler traits !!!!

Looks like it's ancestors might have been bred
with a non-indigenous European Roe Deer !!!!

What a freak !!!!

w

That's a 4 pointer

I score it as yummy with mashed taters gravey and a veg cant eat head bone.

Nice heavy rack, Congratulations

That's a great buck no matter the numbers. Congratulations to your daughter. To me, numbers matter little. It's by the overall appearance that I personally judge deer.

Don’t ever tell them what it scored Steven. It’ll drive some of them mad. LOL

Me too

I Hate Scores

Not me. Don't care much for score. Never have.
A good buck is a good buck.
A 150 6 year old is more of a trophy then a 160 3 year old.
And an OLD doe trumps most.

Amen!!! Only issue is I get a soft spot for real old gals and generally give them a pass.

148 gross

48

Sigh! It isn't my fault you guys out "west" can't count past ten with your shoes on.


I hate to say it but I don't know what it scores lol.

I had to take it off the wall and see what the guy wrote on the back, 147 1/4 net. I dont know what the gross exactly, don't know what I did with the score sheet. 154 rings a bell.

I got another 8 I'll post some day to see if you crackpots can get it.

That picture is 9 years old lol.

Around 130"

Thanks Steven!

Awesome job Yes Sir!

Incredible buck with crazy mass no matter what the numbers! Bet you were a proud daddy! Congrats!

Thanks Steven!

Thanks. You were right there yourself

Super nice deer !!!

I might question his scoring ability if he wrote down 147 1/4 . Let B&B tell you why .........

That's a shocker. Who would have seen that coming?
I could tell why your missing so many double digits but it's so fun to watch u flounder it would cost u $

I'm going to claim the win on this one.

OK you’re the winner Bernie. I’ll second that.

Osky

Dang.., missed by 4".

I think yes sir was closer Bernie.

Well he is an official measurer for the Boone and Crocket Club. If that isn't good enough for you, that's on you.

Oh no one floundering here . I’ve seen the truck bed tape measure tons of times . I might miss the mass from a photo but main beam and tine length I’d look at a deer and can get within a half an inch when the tape measure is put in the right spot
Look at these 2 deer one was posted WITH an official score sheet one wasn’t. But they grossed nearly the same ? Lol Stop being blinded by jealousy and look and compare

One on the left was farther away because it was so wide they couldn't get up any closer

With that said BOTH are brutes. One on right isn't 150 class deer.

Oh doesn't matter to me at all. He might want to do a class on it then. NO SCORER ever rights a measurement in 1/4 ..... EVER !!!

Well if it will please you I'll post the official score sheet when I see the gentleman again to get a copy.

If that 135 pound girl stick her arms out like the dude in your picture it would look like a freak. You know, the way you take fish pictures?

By the way big nuts, i don't care what deer score and this jealousy you speak of is not in my nature.

All I know is what is says on the back, what the score sheet said and started this post to create some conversation.

.. stay on em Uncle Jbyrd…you got these amateurs backed in a corner now !

Steven don't get me wrong that is one heck of a stud the young lady killed !!! True trophy. But this entire line of debate was 150 in 8pointers. Do they exist ? Certainly ! But 95 % of the Claimed 150 class 8's don't come close. If you get the chance go to a deer expo and watch the faces drop when they bring in their deer to get scored properly. Looks like a kid that just got his trick or treat candy took away. That 170 in 10 point bubba killed suddenly becomes a 135 incher. That 160 in 8 magically turns into a above average 125 . Seen it happen hundreds of times.
NOTHING against her deer ! I'm glad you guys have that memory that will last forever.....

Not referring to you . Sorry if you thought that !!!

Hope you are doing well

Glad she wasn't . Does makes it easier to guess.................. One thing that should jump out is BOTH deer have their ears flopped down Your daughters deer the inside spread is well within the spread of the ears. The one I posted beside it the spread is a good 2 inches on the OUTSIDE of each ear tip. Holding it away from the body or hugging it tight won't change that . Don't even try to compare tine length.

Jbird sometimes I feel guilt for picking on u when you open the door so wide. For my conscious's sake you are a grown adult without any clinical mental ailments aren't you?

these threads are awful entertaining

I dont know if they do or not, this is from the B&C official website.

All measurements must be made with a 1/4-inch wide flexible steel tape to the nearest one-eighth of an inch. (Note: A flexible steel cable can be used to measure points and main beams only.) Enter fractional figures in eighths, without reduction. For example, if a point measures 7 and 2/8 inches, you would enter 7 2/8 in the space provided.

https://www.boone-crockett.org/scorechart/add/whitetail_deer

Right in your post it shows official scores to be wrote down in 1/8ths. If an official scorer writes anything besides measurements in 1/8ths he is either not an actual official scorer or he sure should not be.

With that said before reading past your first post I thought it would gross right around 151.

LOL I'll get back to on that one . I do have a psych eval coming up shortly !!!


Amen hunter 53 . Thank you......

Well then you guys are just knitpicking. My whole life I've been taught to simplify fractions.

… here’s my biggest 8 point… never had a deer scored so I want My Uncle Jbyrd to do it



… score him up Uncle J… you’re the only one I trust

Good news is if u don't like their results on your evaluation you don't have to believe it

Hey Jbyrd, what does my 8-poiinter score?

Definitely wasn’t trying to nitpick anything. You said you were not sure and I was just confirming what you posted to be true about officially needing to be scored in 1/8ths. Also the fact an official score would/should never use anything else.

As for the deer; it is a dandy no matter what the score and she should be extremely happy with it.

I can't imagine Anybody that could enjoy being around him.

His perception of most things he posts about are...., well.yanno.

. This coming from a person that lives by himself far away from anyone. I'd bet not by choice !!!!!

.Inflatable people don't count. Hate to tell you that ...

Nephew I just knocked back a pappy vanwinkle so that there deer is "pushing 200" With you being 6'5 and 250 lbs of all muscle even those giant 200 inch deer look small if your holding them !!!

But according to most it's 156 5/4. like all 8 pointers...

Careful hunter 53 The edit police will cite you for editing more than one post .

Hey bucks and bra score this one !!



Nephew this is your favorite pic !!!

… good memories for sure

I’ve scored a ton of deer in my life, and your girls deer is undoubtedly a gross 150 deer. If I had to guess, the pictures don’t do it any favors and it looks a lot bigger in person.

Squirt of a buck but the guy holding it is a B&C KnowItAll..

.. you’re being mean again bucsnbras

… if you can’t say anything nice .. don’t say anything at all

Don’t think he got the message nephew. You know he rode the short bus until he dropped out in second grade. Go easy on him

Edit..
Hey savell, when are you gonna stop the charade of liking him?
You don't and we all know it.
He's not bright enough to know that this stupid uncle stuff was you trying to be funny.
You like him so much, go meet him for a couple days fishing/ hunting.

Yeah, I figgered.

…. You figured what?

.. the only reason I haven’t rode northeast to meet him is because I already kill enough deer , fish and fur around here I’d be afraid I’d decimate the population if I got any tips off him!

… go tend to your pumpkins before all the deer dump you for the dude that planted strawberries!

Pretty decent 3 point right there

More like a train wreck, hard to look away from.

Savell, your uncle hasn't taught you how to properly hold a deer for a picture. Get them elbows out.

… that talk is above my pay grade

.. all I know is I ran that deer down and beat it to death with a wild turkey bottle on my 25th birthday

.. my buddy let me use his bow for the picture

… anyhow I’m thinking about studying pope and crochet scoring full time going forward cause there seems to be a market for it

No lot might be surprised how likable I am. Bucks n bras You smart off everything I post or comment on. Because I was able to do the math on a post you bragging about killing nearly 400 deer .
But I’ll tell you one thing you come at me I don’t back down and in most cases I’m more than prepared. People like you can’t stand to have facts put in your face
If not true let me tell you things that bother you !
If I put an exclamation point on a sentence
If I edit because my phone autocorrect and puts a stupid word in
You make comments only after I post and most times it’s nothing to do with it

But hey I’m smiling in my house with my beautiful wife. Waiting on the weekend so my granddaughters can spend the night. What you doing this weekend? Carving out a lady part from a pumpkin so you will have a date ?

^^^^ poetry rivaling Beowulf right there

… and bucsnbras is up to 402 deer now if my math’s correct

No nephew based on his average of 13.36 per year it’s 450 That was 5 seasons ago

… that man is on another level then

… I’m only on # 449 & 1/4

… guess I need to plant a punkin vine to get me over the top

Helluva bowkill Savell. Awesome buck, even if you had to hit him over the head with a whisky bottle! The empty bottle should have definitely been in the pic as well.

… thanks Chancey… I’ve killed outright ..and mortally wounded many things with a whiskey bottle.. up to and including crakheads and renegade mescins… I’m just not sure if Poon & Sprocket considers that method as fair chase ?
