Muntjac Buck measurements

Hi all,

Last night I managed to finally shoot a large muntjac buck that I have been after for a while. I am not one to chase a trophy however, this old boy has been around for years and the excitement was that he was always one step ahead of me rather than simply the size of his head. Having said that, he is a belter. His head is even larger than I initially thought. The most striking thing is the lengths of his brow tines (5cm & 4cm). The main antler lengths are 13.8cm & 13.9cm*. I have taken all the advised measurements from CIC guidance and think he really is a monster. Do people know if the scoring system is just all measurements less variance or if other things are taken into account?

* I am fully aware that my measurements are not as accurate as those who do it professionally, but I took them using fine string as a rough guide.

Thanks in advance for any replies.
 
Some pictures would be good.
Go on the Cic UKteb site and contact the measurer closest to you. They will advise. It cannot be measured until 30 days have lapsed since the trophy was prepared.

Monster, that’s easily a gold IMO , mine was smaller than this in both main beams and brow tines and made gold….

Congratulations!

if you want my honest opinion, get him caped out and shoulder mounted, unfortunately you’re unlikely to shoot one better

I managed to shoot another gold about 3 years ago which i got caped which looks brilliant (and is certainly smaller than this old boy). I think my wife would cape me if i tried to cape another for the wall!
