Record Roe Deer head taken by deer stalker in Scotland

Record Roe Deer head.
Danish deer stalker, Meldgaard Moeler, shot a six-point head at Deeside which, having been dried for eight weeks, scored 209.9.

An eight-pointer, shot at Blairgowrie, Perthshire, by Mr B. Hodkinson scored 221.78.

In neither case was there any skull distortion or thickening of the eye sockets, so Mr Hodkinson?s head has the potential to be the largest roebuck head taken in the British Isles.
