I just read Oldoregons response to Tuffbucker' post and would like to hear other peoples opinion on width. I took a rack from a buck I harvested a couple years ago to the local sportsmans show this weekend in Puyallup, WA. to have it scored. It ended up making the Washington Book and scored 181 3/8 gross and 173 5/8 net typical, which is amazing to me seeing as how it has very short main beams, 21 5/8 and 19 1/8. The other reason I didn't think it would score that high is it only has a spread of 24 2/8. The one thing it does have going for it is mass, with just under 40". Now if it had a wider spread it really would have scored well. Don't get me wrong, it is a very nice looking typical and I am very proud of it but I just cant help thinking how nice it would have been. Still pretty good, grossing over 180 with those short mains. What do you all think?..............rf
