RE: Muzzleloader kill in Iowa
Thepicture is a common shot called a trophy shot. The camera is set up close to the animal and the hunter is further back with his arms streched forward. This makes the animal look larger than it is compared to the hunter. If you look at the gun, it goes out of the picture because the camera is so close.That said, this is still a great buck with a lot of mass and points and would make most any hunter very happy. Congrats to who ever harvested it.

Setting the camera up so close does give it a fisheye type effect but a wide angle lense will give the same effect and is probably what they used. I've seen severalpictures of a deerthat a friend of mine shot that had this type of effect. One of them looked about half the size of this deer but only had about 14" of spread, in the picture it looked wider than his shoulders, it was taken with a regular digital camera.

If that is a muzzleloader, I'll eat my shorts. That sucker has at least a 3x9 scope, a bolt action etc... but I guess that's how traditional archers feel about compound shooters eh?

Monster buck, probably high fence fed on high calcium diet.
