Please refer to your local and/or state regulations regarding antler width standards for harvested animals. It is the hunters responsibility to be knowledgeable of and abide by all game regulations.

HOW THE RACK BRACKET WORKS
In an effort to help hunters, Bushnell looked at issues that had confronted many of them in the field. Field judging
deer, especially via magnified view, can be exceedingly difficult. To help with the field judging of whitetails and
mule deer we have incorporated a series of lines that extend out from each aiming point. Each lines measures
24 inches at the respective distance. There will also be two “hash marks” on each line that measure 17 inches
between them. Why did we choose 24” and 17”? After extensive research it was determined that 24 inches rep-
resents the average width of a mule deer’s ears and 17 inches was the average width of a whitetail’s ears. Given
proper time to judge an animal, a hunter can now get an estimate of rack width, and possibly even tine length.
Rack Bracket estimations are for reference only and may not be exact. Make note that it is the sole responsibility of
the hunter to make the final determination on any animal they decide to harvest.
Please refer to your local
and/or state regulations regarding antler width standards for harvested animals. It is the
hunters responsibility to be knowledgeable of and abide by all game regulations.
