Thread: How would I measure the length on this atypical Sika?

Went out for my first Sika hunt over the weekend and was pretty stoked to put this funky old fella back in dirt.

I want to do a rough douglas score on him (and if I he scores well get an official one), but I wasn't sure if the length measure would follow the drop tines or just carry up through to the top points. I'd also be interested in his age if anyone can give some info on it.

Cheers
