Growing up in my part of MT, we count the eyeguards (on one side only of course) on whitetails, but not muleys.  If you really want to get accurate with either species, you count all the points like so:  "I shot a nice 5X6 muley last week."

Go figure.

Loco


Backtail and muleys, if you shot a 3x3 (with eye guards) you could shorten it up by saying "I shot a 3 pointer", a 3x2 (with eye guards) is just that a 3x2, etc. Whitetail, I can't imagine how fun it would be counting all those points. Yippee

if its a mule deer or an elk its a 5x5 or 4x3 etc. if its a whitetail, its the total number of points on the rack...

regardless, they are both dandy's!!
