Comments :

NOTE: The GIRTH is 29M – Only 17.4m [60%] is shown for the points calculation. The Register applies an arbitrary % adjustment to figs with enormous buttressing. If this adjustment is not done, the point score would not really reflect the relative Points size of these trees compared to other trees on the Register. The buttresses result in a lot of ‘air points’ that are not reflective of the trunk mass and distort the objectivity of the Points system
