I thought it was fake as soon as i saw it. The right antler is resting on the tailgate and the spread is different in the second pic.
I went to check out your other photos dude, not to many that show you with the deer in the woods, or not to many with the rack on the deer! I got lots of huge racks and picks i could claim as mine too that picked up at rummage sales, shed hunting, and road kills from cops .I think your legendary status pressured you to outdo yourself this time. Nice try, next time maybe, at least rompolla went through a little effort to get a nice pic of the deer. As a taxidermist i can tell you its really a doe, most wouldnt have noticed but 99% of all bucks have a patch of longer darker (sometimes redish) hair on the top of thier head.does dont have this often, Thats why doe capes cannot be used as a replacement for a botched up buck cape to mount it. Looks like a doe head to me. notic the short light hair all the way throught he scalp, find me a real buck picture with that .
Besides that, either you got a B/C buck that wieghs in at about 110lbs, or your hands are as big as Andre the Giants were!! check out his hand size compared to the head
