What should I do if I disagree with my Boone & Crockett score?

Understanding the Scoring Process

If you’re unhappy with your Boone and Crockett score, it’s essential to understand the scoring process first. The Boone and Crockett scoring system evaluates antlers based on six categories: main beams, length, width, mass, symmetry, and a final score. Each category is assigned a certain number of points, and the final score is calculated by adding up the points from each category. By reviewing these categories and their corresponding point values, you can determine potential errors or discrepancies in your score.

Submitting a Score Review Request

To initiate the score review process, submit a request to the Boone and Crockett Club with supporting documentation, including photographs of your trophy from multiple angles, a detailed description of the scoring process, and any relevant measurements. The club requires a non-refundable fee of $100 for this service. The review process typically takes 8-12 weeks to complete, but can take longer in complex cases. During this time, the club will review your submission and may request additional information or clarification.

Preparing Your Submission

To increase the chances of a successful score review, ensure that your submission is thorough and well-documented. Provide clear photographs of your trophy that clearly show the antlers from multiple angles, including the main beams, points, and any distinctive features. Include detailed measurements, such as the length of the main beams and the width of the antlers. A well-prepared submission will help the club accurately review your score and provide a fair and accurate revised score.
