    Basicly there are 9 measurements.
    Lenght....measure lenght of both antlers and double the smallest length to get your total.
    Spread.... measure the spread of antlers from the outside to outside at the widest part of both to get your total.
    Span.... do the same measurement but measure from the inside of each antler to the other to get your score.
    Beam .... Measure the main beam of each antler (between the first and second points) the thickness of each and double the smallest total to get the score
    Coronett....measure each coronett and double the smallest total to get your score.
    Brow......measure each brow and double the smallest total to gt your score
    Bez..... do the same
    Trez.... do the same
    Tops....do the same
    add the nine totals up and you have your DS score.
    Of cause if its a ten pointer or bigger you have 2 tops scores for a ten, or 3 for a 12 so could have 12 scores to add up
    With the brow, bez, trez and tops you can only score if it has a oppsoite side...ie a nine pointer can only score as a 8.
    This is a very basic explantion ...maybe not the best but its hows it done.

    I have scored a number myself then had them checked and im always very close or a couple points under at most so thats fine
