Trophy Scoring

There are various organizations around the world that score wildlife and keep official records. To score your trophy animal, download an official score chart below. You can also obtain score charts from official measurers or directly from each organization's Web site.

Boone and Crockett Club

The Boone and Crockett Club is a non-profit organization founded in 1887 by Theodore Roosevelt. His vision was to establish a coalition of dedicated conservationists and sportsmen who would provide the leadership needed to address the issues that affect hunting, wildlife and wild habitat.

Northwest Big Game

Our friends at Northwest Big Game print big game record books for Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and Montana. Please visit their site for more information or to purchase their record books.

Pope and Young

The Pope & Young Club is recognized as the official repository for records on bow-harvested North American big game. Together with the Boone & Crockett Club, the Pope and Young Club maintains the universally accepted scoring system and sets the standards for measuring and scoring big game.

The P&Y Records Program archives provide great insight into the past and present management, health, and trends of North America's wildlife populations. The records are a testimonial to wildlife, traditional wildlife management, and the importance of hunting as a management tool.

Safari Club International

Safari Club International is the leader in protecting the freedom to hunt and in promoting wildlife conservation worldwide.

The SCI Record Book of Trophy Animals uses SCI’s unique all-inclusive record keeping system, the most used system in the world, to document our hunting heritage. The scoring system recognizes typical and non typical animals and both free range and estate taken animals.

No deductions are enforced penalizing animals for asymmetry in the SCI scoring system.
