if he has no plans to enter in the book and simply would like to know what he scored then why not get a second score on it? I think the intent of no "score shopping" was for book entry. If he simply wants to know then why not? If the second score is significantly different than the first then there obviously was a problem with one of them. If it is close to the first then there you go. Either way, he should do whatever makes him happy.

What to do when the numbers just don't add up?

I would like to see how scorers determine the typical portion of the rack on freaks like the Mark Lee, Robert Taylor and AJ Downs bucks.

I agree with the "the numbers shouldn't matter" crowd to a degree. I'm sure when that buck walked out your buddy wasn't running numbers on a calculator trying to decide if he was a shooter or not. That said, when he's on the tailgate and pictures are being shared, you want to know what he scores. Hell, I want to know what he scores lol. I'd take it to another official scorer even if that score wasn't able to be submitted for whatever reason.
I went years making sure my entire set up was P&Y legit so that when I did kill one I could enter him in the books. I was kind of obsessed with it. I've killed a bunch of them now and don't have a single one entered in the books.
