Tropy Care & SCI Scoring

Tropy Care & SCI Scoring Common Questions

What happens after my deer is down?

KTD staff will retrieve your buck and transport him to the skinning shed where he will be skinned and quartered to transport. Meat can be place in a cooler on ice for you to take home.

Can you process my deer?

No, but there are commercial processors in the area that can help you.

Do you provide taxidermy services?

No, but we work closely with an experienced local taxidermist (Shane Hall 270-256-2912). If you are planning to take your trophy elsewhere for taxidermy, we can cape out your head and provide critical measurements for your taxidermist.

Am I limited to the SCI Score range I indicated when I booked?

No, we try to determine what type of trophy our guest is looking for before the hunt so that we can best help the hunter find the deer they desire. Many hunters may decide to take a smaller or larger deer when they are actually out hunting.

Who is responsible for judging the SCI score of a deer?

Your KTD guide is responsible to field score deer while hunting! You will never be charged more than the estimated field score of your deer.

Can you give me an idea of how the field scoring works?

For instance, while hunting your guide estimates a deer at 155” (a 150s class). Once the deer is down he is measured at 171” (a 170s class). You still only pay the 150s price!

Where can I find SCI scoring information for whitetail deer?

You can find all information for the Safari Club International (SCI) scoring methods online; however, here are links to the score sheets for whitetail deer. Typical WT deer - Method_17-T.pdf and Non-typical WT deer - Method_18-NT.pdf.
