- All scores are gross B&C green scores within 24 hrs. of harvest.
- The guide will let the hunter be aware if the BUCK/EXOTIC is close to going over his/hers desired budget in the price bracket he has chosen. When it is difficult to make an accurate judgment of the BUCK’S/EXOTIC’S B&C score or length, then the decision to shoot will be left to the hunter and will be responsible for any additional charge.
- If the guide calls a B&C SCORE/LENGTH out to the hunter prior to shooting a BUCK/EXOTIC and the B&C score or length of the BUCK/EXOTIC after harvest is more than the guide had stated, and has gone into a higher price bracket there will be no additional charge to the hunter.
