Have you killed a typical 12/14/16 point buck?

Trying to see how scarce a typical 12 point buck is. Thought I'd throw in a typical 14 and may as well see if any 16 point typical bucks have been taken by members. These would be 6X6 stickers don't count. 7X7 stickers don't count. 8X8 stickers don't count. Not looking for score but post that up also if you want. Pictures would really be nice.

Thought I'd throw in the odd numbered typical points just for curiosity. The rack pictured below displays a typical (10). Just trying to eliminate any confusion on what a typical would be or look like.

I already had you penciled in for one. Looks like it will be a short list. They may be even more rare than I thought.

I have positively seen a good number of clean 12's over the years but never killed one. I realize that doesn't count though.

10's are way more common and what my 3 biggest bucks are except one is an 11 with a sticker point.

The one we killed this year was an 11. Missing the last point on one side. Can't say I've seen them on the trail cams either.

If I cheat a little, this would have been a typical 12 had he not busted off his right brow tine.

All I have is a shed of a 2 1/2 year old with six typical points on one side. Great Kansas genetics on that little buck. Never killed anything over a typical 10.
