B&C Scoring Notes
- Antlers must dry 60 days for official scoring — fresh antlers shrink as they dry.
- Certified measurer required for official entry into B&C records. This calculator gives an estimate only.
- Typical whitetail minimum for B&C records: 125" net typical, 185" net non-typical.
- Pope & Young (bow minimum): 125" net typical whitetail.
- Deductions are the sum of all differences between matching measurements (right vs. left). A perfectly symmetrical rack has zero deductions.
