Catscratch House and Habitat build

[Catscratch]

The 4th mass measurements were 4.5 and 3.75. The tines are close on that 4.75 measurement.

Do you count points like this in scores? There are a couple more that measure close to an inch that I didn't include. Maybe call them both 7/8?

I think they have to be >1" to be scoreable points.

You have that sport beaten. Time to move on to something harder. Buttons. Ever found one? I haven't! I feel it's a whole different endeavor. Literally have to get into your best bedding area and stare straight at the ground. I think I'll find a paleo point before a button.

No buttons... yet! I'd rather have the Paleo point!

Haha depends. Are you at home scoring and going for biggest score? Or going for a record book typical? A "professional" scorer would make a pencil line on those points and use a quarter inch steel tape. That point you pictured would be real close, maybe an inch I'd guess.

That's a 1.375" spur for @Howboutthemdawgs

Internet says it needs to be at least an inch, and longer than wide. It doesn't really matter but now I'm curious. It'll never see a scorer, a record book, Facebook, or anything like that. But since I have it started I'd like to know the armchair quarterback conclusion as to final score.

194 7/8" is pretty damn impressive especially for a rough score. I'd guess you probably left a few inches out there, it's worthy of a professional score just to know! It's probably past the drying period already anyway, take that thing into a scorer and see what they say!

You can take it to a professional scorer without entering into a record book or giving your location, FYI.

Somehow your ridiculously close guess got better…

I've studied a lot of racks in my day!

Cameron Coble scores in IA and travels. He's a good old boy and I like the historian in him. I think he scores in walmart and caseys parking lots if people want to meet in the middle, lol

Me too! (but somehow they haven't helped me with deer at all)

Now that's cool.

 

[Catscratch]

Lol, there's nothing there longer than 1 1/8.

That's a giant buck!

He really is kind of impressive. I was happy with this one, but when you put them together it's not much of a comparison. The difference between a 130, a 150, and a 170 is huge. But one like this is in it's own category.

I didn't see anyone else say it, so ...... coulda used another year, Cat!!

Great bucks around your place.
