[QUOTE="deaddownwind, post: 4074881, member: 9652"] Thanks for the congratulatory comment but here is a little tutelage on mass measurements. Circumferences are taken at the narrowest place for each measurement between each point. You get four mass measurements on both antlers (8 total) on any deer. If the brow tine (G1) is missing, the first two mass measurements are the measurement at the smallest place between the burr and the G2. If the G4 is missing, the last mass measurement will be the measurement halfway between the G3 and the tip of the main beam. The reason its so hard to get to 150 for an 8 point is because you only have 6 tine length measurements in my opinion. He may not be 150 one the 60 day drying period is over, but either way I am tickled with him and feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to kill this deer. [/QUOTE]
