Antler Scoring

[huntinstuff]

If any of you local Alberta guys want your deer/moose/ caribou/antlers or bear/cougar skulls scored officially, I just want to extend my free services to you.

I'm in Edmonton and will gladly score your animal (if you can leave it with me for a week).

That way, maybe we can meet up and have a coffee. And it will keep me busy and off the streets.....

It is? How about scoring something like this one then? You guess which are the typical and non typical points...this one's not that simple

Huntinstuff...are you a certified B&C measurer? I know a guy in Edmonton looking to get a sheep scored.

Non-typicals definitely take longer to score, especially a buck with that much "junk".

First thing you do is sit down and evaluate the rack to determine which points are typical and which are non-typical and mark 'em (pencil). Lots of bucks scores can get screwed around at this point. IMHO, Don McGarvey got f**ked over by U.S. B&C scorers, that didn't want another World Record north of the border.

But once you have determined the non-typical/typical points, they score just the same as a typical. Take your time.

You need a few simple tools to accurately score a deer rack.


1) The proper B&C score sheet for the species in question.
2) A bicycle brake cable. For measuring lengths of beams, points, palms...
3) A flexible clear plastic ruler, to accurately mark the origin of points.
4) 1 pencil.
5) Tape measure.
5) The gizmo for measuring inside spread (wooden slide tape) is harder to find...
