What makes you so sure you can get within 15" of a deer's score from looking at a picture  Honestly, I think that most don't necessarily lie. Could be that they don't know how to score, someone else scored it that doesn't know how to score, they read the score on the score sheet wrong, added wrong, etc. I have seen someone post the score sheet on this forum after they were questioned and the 4 looked like a 9 on the score sheet. They added 50 points to the score from a 140 something to a 190.... Also, I have seen pictures of a 125" deer that people guessed at 145" and seen pictures of 150" deer that everyone guesses at 125". Pictures arent always that easy to score from. I agree with the rest of your statement  Take it east on him he has a while 16 posts he must be a know it all Pretty sure we have seen him before Geez I butchered that up pretty bad. I need to read what I type on my phone before I click submit.  have U seeen some of my posts  like they say: ya can't fix stupid

I've always figured that the more a lease costs, the more important the score of the deer becomes!

Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

Pretty easy to do publicly, just call a 130" 8pt a 149" 8pt and claim it as such.

Same reasons people lie about anything-ego. Just human nature.
I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.

Probably worse than the after kill BS are the ones that try to justify a much higher score on a buck from pics so they can shoot it.

Scores matter not to me so why should I care if someone lies about them. Now if someone lies about how many pounds of meat they put in the freezer, that is all together different.
