I shot this buck in southeastern Montana with my Alpine Challenger XL bow two days before the end of the rifle season. I missed the P&Y non-typical by 1 3/4".

Sorry about the picture links. I thought they would work through Yahoo. I have emailed them into the site and hopefully they will help me out.
Sorry.

He scored 168 3/4" P&Y. I needed 170 to get in. I am thinking about getting a second measurement. He was 26 wide and 23 high.

If you right click and copy, you can paste the pic into MS Word or a photo editing program.

168 6/8" P&Y non-typical is still a nice buck no matter if makes the all-time archery book or not. Congratulations on a fine animal.
Was it officially measured by a P&Y measurer? If so, it will be difficult for another measurer to re-score, as the club frowns on this for obvious reasons. However, if you have a good reason for doubting the specific measurments (non-typical), contact Glenn Hisey at www.pope-young.org and explain. He can give you better direction. It's been my experience though, these requests are not usually granted, especially with a margin of over an inch. Good luck and again congratulations on a fine animal.

I did have it officially scored, but the guy acted like I was putting him out by having him do it. He didn't speak two words to me the whole time I was there. The main reason I was thinking about re-scoring it was because he also scored a buddies of mine whitetail and by his measurements, it didn't make the book. He had it re-scored and it did. Of course, I found this out afterwards. :-( The taxidermist who is doing the head used to be a scorer. I kept the score sheet and am going to have him go over it and base my decision on that before I make any calls.
Trust me, I am very pleased with this buck. It was a dream come true for me. Now for my elk!!!!
