Was it measured by an official B&C or Pope and Young certified scorer, or TWRA guys that do it for the registry? The reason I ask is I know you had him a little higher. I shot one with a bow 2 years ago and I scored him with a string twice green and came up with 142 2/8 and 139 6/8 after he dried. TWRA scored him at 133 2/8 for the registry so I was concerned, and a little butthurt, because I couldn't figure out how I was off by 6 inches. The largest differences were in our mass measurements. I had him officially scored by a Pope and Young guy and he got 139 3/8 gross. He said TWRA guys use "quicker" methods that are often off by a few inches.
