Default Roe deer rack score ideas

I took this picture of a set of Roe deer horns at a restaurant outside of Kolonia, Pohnpei in Micronesia. Way back like 100yrs ago, some German administrators brought some Roe deer to the island.

They live in some thick and steep country. The locals hunt them with .22 rifles or .410 shotguns (the only firearms they can own). There's not really a season, and the meat is openly sold at markets.

Does anyone with experience scoring antlers have an idea if this set is remarkable or average? I was told this set was bigger than normal for Pohnpei.

It's fantastic!!!!!!!

It'll easill be a gold medal, a buck like that in Europe is worth a lot f money!!!!!

Measuring on the cic system goes with weight, mass and length as well as points and looks.

Just by sight that is a superb head.

Thanks for the information. It makes you think about wanting to take another trip down there, and set up a hunt. They're not really managed, no license, no season, no bag limits, no size or sex restrictions...

Hmmm.....I think I'd better investigate this a little more.
