A giant among super sires, he produced so many top line stags with fantastic trophy heads. His genetics combined with Adonis genetics have proved to be a winner. It is the mark of a champion sire when his progeny surpasses him.

Motsumi DG had an impressive head as a spiker, very good spread and 21 points. As a 2yr old he carried a record breaking head. Bifurcated brow tines, huge trez basal snags, SA above the trez. At 2 he had 35 points with a score of 367 inches a tremendous head for a 2yr old. Hes the best 2yr old Don has seen in the 25 years that he has been involved with deer!
Motsumi antler conformation is very similiar to his grandsires Jamie & Wellington of Furzeland Park, strong tines and multi-pointed tops with throwbacks. As a 3yr old Motsumi went into overdrive. Huge beam, long tines and trez that go on forever.
He cast his buttons on the 25 August 2002, and had a massive lump of velvet growing on his head. All Motsumis rising 1yr stags of our own (out of 1st calvers) are multi- pointed.
When Motsumis head was scored at 4yrs we were amazed at the size of his coronets - a massive 11.4inches with a thick beam measurement of 7.6inches He is putting up the points as well as growing impressive velvet producing beam, which is evident in his HA weight of 11.25kgs.
2003 - 5yr old Motsumi cast his buttons 20 August, head 18 x 15, 451 inches
2004 cast 20 August. His progeny in our herd continue to perform at the top end of the trophy market. Leonardo DG is a son of Motsumi out of an Adonis hind. Leo is shaping up to be a top trophy sire.You can view Leonardos antlers on his webpage. His 2004 head is damaged.
Our other Motsumi sons out of Adonis hinds performed brilliantly. We only had 6 sons born 2001 and all 6 are producing fantastic trophy heads.
