Looks like the photos are gone after photobucket spat the dummy but the tutorial is good:
FishnHunt - New Zealands Famous Hunting and Fishing Forum Since 1995 - Douglas scoring system
@Pointer all those pics are gone. I did found that thread though. Taxidermist said he might be able to get it done.
OK I will start the game off. I will pick the magic number 318DS and that my friends is a big fat uneducated, inexperienced guestimation :D
Yeah bummer it makes it a little harder to follow. Out of curiosity what was the main beam measurement on your head?
I scored a few red heads back in the day
@Pointer the spread is about 38" and the length is about 37" (that"s the only two measurements i looked at). head is currently down the road in a walk in freezer. Don't think it will make the 300ds but this might be the best head i ever shoot.
I think you're in for a surprise :) regardless of the maths it's a stunner. I never get sick of looking at those east coast genetics.
Yip lovely head :thumbsup:
Was wondering when this thread would change to geting 'head'Quote:

@Sideshow have a look under stags shot 2018
Did you get a score bro?
The game might do well with 3D printer output. A giant ready-taxidermied stags head to hang up at the local NZDA haunt, but you'd still need to paint it.
@Gibo i got a guy down the road to score it so even though he tryed to follow the nzda norman douglas hand book he was a bit unsure but come up with about ds285. Next day i was dropping head off at taxidermist so thats as far as i got. Just looking forward to been able to pick it up and get it up on the wall.Quote:
