Antler Scoring System
The antler scoring system used for the Magnolia Records Program is identical to that used by the B&C and P&Y Clubs. The minimum scores for the Magnolia Records Program are 125 - Typical, 155 - Non-Typical. All white-tailed deer taken legally within Mississippi during any prior hunting season are eligible to participate in the Magnolia Records Program. All entrants meeting the minimum requirements of the Magnolia Records Program will receive an official Magnolia Records Program Certificate. If the deer has been officially scored for Boone & Crockett, Pope & Young, or Longhunters purposes, please bring the official score sheet with your mount to the scoring session.
About the Program
The Magnolia Records Program is not, however, a "big buck" contest that awards the winner(s) with cash and/or prizes. The name of the hunter, official score, and county of harvest, along with other necessary information, will be placed on the state records list. Deer hunters who successfully harvest a deer in Mississippi with trophy-sized antlers are encouraged to have their antlers scored for possible entry into the state records list. Only deer harvested in Mississippi according to the then-current rules and regulations of the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks or pick-up antlers (skull plate attached) are eligible for scoring.
