Gross vs Net

RE: Gross vs Net
Another thumbs down for deductions here, especially in scoring a non-typical! They deduct for differences in the mainframe while adding theinches that shouldn't be there at all anyway, howredundant is that!??While Iappreciate the beauty in a perfectly symmetrical rack, I'd prefer more antler inchesover symmetry any day of the week. Anytime I see a deer harvest published, I only pay attention to the gross score as that more accurately tells me what he actually looked like.

RE: Gross vs Net
There is a guy who owns an archery shop about 30 minutes from my house who has started his own scoring system that has no deductions. In order to be "typical" one side cannot be x-inches (I can't remember) different than the other. If it is it is just scored as a non-typical, but there are still no deductions. I really like that system. P&Y and B&C scoring systems are junk. The head of P&Y's score keeping actually stated that the more symmetric the rack, the better rack it was. Can you imagine that? Actually thinking that one rack is better than another. That is like judging snow flakes.
