GregH are those Doctor Meyer's actual heads, or two other replica's headed elsewhere? He told me who he got all the heads from but that was a few years ago and I can't remember the specifics now. Do you have any other pics as well? The heads are MOST impressive when viewed about 2ft above eye level with any open background. That pic just doesn't do them justice for anyone that hasn't seen the two side by side (lol care to tell anyone how much money you are holding in each hand there? I don't think many realize how much money these largest replicas are bringing nowadays!). The perspective is skewed because you are standing between THE two largest framed typical whitetails in existance!

If you know "Doc" very well you know he is quite a character!

Those heads are the real deal. The guy in the pic is my old taxidermist and friend who retired and moved up north. He is friends with Larry Hoffman who used to own the legendary whitetail collection. Hoffman stopped by after his purchase to show my buddy and uncrated them for a pic. He bought a third head and paid $200,000 for all three. $100,000 was for the Jordan buck. I believe this was just after Milo Hanson shot the current WR buck. I believe that Hoffman sold his collection to Bass Pro Shops, but I'm not sure who has possesion of them now.
