My son arrowed a buck this year. He scored it at 184 4/8. After drying time it was officially scored @ 180 6/8. Is it common for a rack to shrink that much?

Did he score it himself the first time, and then get an official scorer to score it the second time?

2 different people scoring a deer will often come up with a different score. Especially a novice and a professional scorer.

Net score. He originally scored it himself, but he's scored dozens.

I'm guessing most of the difference is because 2 different people scored it. Great deer.

There's a reason the really big ones are panel scored
