definately a whitetail. the antlers don't fork in groups of two like a mule's do. and the coloration and markings are different.

Looks like a Mule/WhiteTail Deer Cross Breed

Look at the ears.
Every thing looks like a WhiteTail except the ears.

98 percent whitetail

JMHO

Crossbreed was my first thought, too. I have a friend in Wyoming who says they've been crossbreeding there for quite a while. I don't know what characteristics would be predominant (other than the Southern thing), but it might look like this one.

It is a joke...can't you see it. WH32 put the picture out here and never came back because he is too busy laughing. Stop looking at the rack and look closely at the picture. It is obviously 2 different deer. Even my old eyes can see the poor junction between the head / neck of the whitetail and the mulie body.

this whole "its a superior southern deer" is getting old
Don't pay TDWW any attention, his shet does get old, but he ain't Southern to begin with and probably not a hunter either! Most people, Southern or not, KNOW that to "demand" respect will get you NONE!
BTW, it's a Whitetail, probably South Tex by the background!

The photo is taken from here:

cnhntr: A mule deer's antlers don't ALWAYS fork... And, sometimes, a white-tail's antlers do.
