"Technically Speaking" yes B & C counts the eyeguards but let me put this to the readers, how many of us will ever be submitting a deer for the books? I doubt I ever will but yes, I do know that part of the 200 inches of the buck I'll never shoot includes the eyeguards. The monster I got this year is an 80lb 2x2, no eyeguards :-) and I'd bet he eats better than a big buck any day.

For the most part we apply the same standard rule, that a 4 by 4 is a 4 by 4 regardless of brow tines. Main reason being, that the main identifying features of a good mule in this country, should have the basic 4 point components. After that, brow tines seem to be a bonus, and can be great for cleaning up deductions. I guess with non-typicals, you mabey just have to judge those boys on the ground.

My son shot a nice buck this season. 4x8 including two 1" points on the left and not including eyeguards which were 3" inches on each side. Is it a 5x9, 4x8, or 4x6? What about a non-typical deer?
