My 2013 DIY Public Land Whitetail

[Joe Hulburt]

In Idaho, even though we talk about whitetails we still use western count. Growing up the only people I ever heard count all the tines were eastern transplants. In Idaho your buck is a 4 pt, had it had another point on one side it would have been a 4x5. Even though on mulies we don't count the brow tines we do on whitetails.

Either way, great buck.

I know, I know. I just like the sound of 8 point better than 4 point.

Here in Oregon we don't count brow tines either on blacktails or mule deer but then when I enter something in the record books they do count them. Nothing like keeping things uniform.
