This I believe. I have serious doubts that this buck was free ranging. Someone, somewhere would have to have seen it and look at the body size. That deer looks to be no older than 3.5 at the oldest. It is very typical for farm raised deer to have huge headgear and small bodies.

As for the pic, it looks pretty legit. You can see the guy is using his legs to support the head and there looks to be something under its neck supporting that as well.

I'd certainly like to hear more about this deer even if it is farm raised. It is an incredible animal.

Not an Illinois buck because of body size. Any Illinois deer with a set of antlers like that would be much larger in body. That's a southern deer body with a photo shop rack. (IMO)

I understand it is gutted.

Sorry to the hunters if I am incorrect. It would be a first. Haha.

Looks more like a texas deer with the body being that small. If that buck came from illinois the body size is comparable to most 2.5 year old bucks ive seen, and 2.5 year load deer dont get racks like that in the wild. I would say it is a pen raised deer.

it looks like a real deer...when the deers' testes get "messed up", it will cause the deer not to shed its antlers and continue to grow every year, on top or below the last set...aka a cactus buck!

that is my first thoughts..

Even odder is that ppl havent seen this pic before. Normally by now that deer would have been killed in 7 different states by someones 'cousins, sisters, half brother'... lol

LOL @ Tram & Del, it does doesnt it! *shake my head*

the Problem with that theory is that I can only see onset of main beams on this deer. Oall of the extra junk seems to originate from those 2 beams indicating that it was one years worth of growth aided with growth hormones and steroids in a farm.

A fake and a very poor one. The two guys are not in the picture with the deer, nor is the deers head or antlers. Photoshop.
