There's been some bad info going around. The deer in the second picture doesn't score 219" typical. According to a post (on another site) from a fellow who scored the rack (unofficial), that deer scores aound 200" typical, or 220" non-typical. World class, but not world record. Pictures of the "supposed" new potential record have not been released, from what I understand.
Jetblast, the rack is cut off because that's how we mount them on the form for taxidermy. It looks white because ALL of the meat and tissue must be removed. Nothing left but bone.
