THE FIRST PIC LOOKS NOTHING LIKE THE 2ND AND 3RD DEER IMO. MAYBE I AM READING WRONG BUT IT LOOKED LIKE SOMEONE THOUGHT THEY WERE THE SAME BUCK:eek:

Hate to tell you but that's not the Illinois roadkill deer. Here's a picture of it and I thing it net scored down in the 170's because of the right forked G2. I also have the story of it but it's in a book at home.







dont know how you can say that is the same buck pictured in the top post . they are not even close to being the same
