RE: Is this for real?
Take a look at some of the numbers of trophy bucks taken from relatively small managed outfitting operations that are advertised in states like Illinois. If it is "intensive" management, you don't need a ranch the size of Rhode Island to have a lot of really big bucks available for the taking, especially if, as the picture alleges, you have decided to wipe out the herd.

If it is real I doubt that harvesting that many deer should has not gotten the attention of fish and game,even if it is managed land.if it is real that s not cool they should have relocated some of them to more needy land like New Jersey.

No it isn't, look at some of the deer's eyes and ears. Some of those deer are shoulder mounted

They look like they are alive.
It does look fake.

But then again they could have intensively managed their land, food plots, minerals, feeders, etc. That is possible but they might have introduced some genetics like impregnating does with Texan high quality genetics, or introducing some deer from a breeder onto the lease. It could be very well possible, but they would have to have a large, large piece of land.

RE: Is this for real?
That's a real beautiful sight, seeing all those racks piled up. Try and count them up, it took me a couple tries cause I kept losing track with the way they're intertwined. I counted 27!! With 11 hunters standing there some guys shot 3. How many buck can you shoot in Minnesota? I agree some could be mounts with the way they're positioned and no tongues hanging out, maybe it was over 2 years, still a lot of good bucks.

I got the same email a while back, there should be another picture with it where they had all the mounts in the back of a truck as well. The majority of them are mounted already. Its tough to find that many harvested deer without a tongue hanging out! Its still quite a picture. Even if it was just a picture with all the deer they have taken off the land over the years its still quitea piece of hunting ground!
