Default New Alberta Record Typical Whitetail.....

..... supposedly. I got these pictures in an e-mail this evening. The e-mail said it was taken near Two Hills Alberta, and will be on the cover of Buck magazine soon. I'll believe it when I see it. Look at how close the guy is holding the deer to the camera. The deer is so close the pictures aren't even focused right. The guy looks like he's really short too. If it is real, it's one heck of a deer.

I doubt it is photoshoped, but people certainly know how to make their trophies look larger than what they are. Why would you do that anyway, he is a beast no matter what. Just take a dang picture of him like you should. Great buck.

Its not photoshop I do photoshop for a living. It is trick photography though the deer is always 2 ft. closer to the camera thhent he guy which gives a lot bigger look. The deer is a whopper anyway someone just can't be satisfied with a great deer they have to lie to feel like the big man.

He looks like he's pretty well lit, and the lighting appears to be early AM....makes you wonder how legal the hunt was.

Something here just doesn't seem right....of course I may just be jealous too!!!

Looks like the real deal to me especially the 2nd and 3rd pics and that canadian looks like he's been smoking some BC bud!

Great looking buck but I wonder about it when I see him holding the deer up with just the edge of his hand. That head and rack has to weigh a ton and he appears to be just holding it up with ease especially in the last picture. I have held up a bunch of much smaller deer for the camera and always am glad to let the head down after. I vote fake but who knows maybe the guy is Charles Atlas.

No it couldn't have been photo shopped. Here is a pic from TDWW who actually harvested it in Florida...see the deer forum

Someone needs to explain to me why that hunter doesn't have to hold that deers head up, especially in the last pic. where the deers head and neck should be wanting to fall away from the hunter, but yet he has his hand under the rack, not even holding onto it to keep it from falling down.

Maybe the deer is frozen rock solid!! Don't know. Something is amiss! Plus the deer is always in the exact same position, just in a "different" location with the hunter in a different position as well.
