How do I find the item tag? [duplicate]

I'm currently working on some maps, but I always find myself lost when I'm trying to find a specific item in a slot in my inventory.
This time it's the head, which is 103b. Currently, I don't have any way to check for it, so all I'm doing is checking for a skull, which makes it easy to bypass.
Here is an example:
/scoreboard players set @a Hulk 1 {Inventory:[{Slot:103b,id:"minecraft:skull"}]}This is an easy way to find the skull, but I want it to be more specific. For example, a skull with a name, enchantments, etc.
This is the specific item I'm looking for:
/give @p minecraft:skull 1 3 {HideFlags:1,display:{Name:"The Hulk",Lore:[The head of the Hulk]},SkullOwner:Oconna,ench:[{id:0,lvl:10}]}But since I can't copy {HideFlags:1,display:{Name:"The Hulk",Lore:[The head of the Hulk]},SkullOwner:Oconna,ench:[{id:0,lvl:10}]} into the other command (which would result in this):
/scoreboard players set @a Hulk 1 {HideFlags:1,display:{Name:"The Hulk",Lore:[The head of the Hulk]},SkullOwner:Oconna,ench:[{id:0,lvl:10}]}I can't find it easily.
Is there any way to easily find a head with specific attributes, or do I need to type it all down?

The item-specific data is stored in the tag tag, meaning you'll have to add
tag:{HideFlags:1,display:{Name:"The Hulk",Lore:[The head of the Hulk]},SkullOwner:Oconna,ench:[{id:0,lvl:10}]}to the id and Slot tags in the scoreboard command (cf. Item Structure), as shown below.
/scoreboard players set @a Hulk 1
{ Inventory:[ { Slot:103b, id:"minecraft:skull", tag: { HideFlags:1, display:{Name:"The Hulk",Lore:[The head of the Hulk]}, SkullOwner:Oconna, ench:[{id:0,lvl:10}] } }]
}Non-exploded view for copy-pasting:
/scoreboard players set @a Hulk 1 {Inventory:[{Slot:103b,id:"minecraft:skull",tag:{HideFlags:1,display:{Name:"The Hulk",Lore:[The head of the Hulk]},SkullOwner:Oconna,ench:[{id:0,lvl:10}]}}]} 2
