Thread: Sika Show - Worth entering a red?

I shot a nice public land red stag earlier this year and am wondering if it's worth entering in the show. He's all mounted up and ready to go on the wall, I read in the rules that they need to be able to drill the skull to DNA test heads but I'm assuming that is only for sika/hybrid determination. Can anyone confirm if I can enter a fully mounted head?

I also looked at the winning scores for the reds last year and mine wouldn't have been close (the top public land head scored 382DS). Is it worth a nudge with my little 319DS head?

I also noticed the private land winner was much smaller (267DS), did they perhaps get the scores the wrong way round and the 267 was actually the public land stag? Or did no one enter the estate section assuming it would have to be a mutant monster?

Cheers,
Adam
