What is supporting the head up like that? I don't see a stick propping it up, and I'm not sure he could hold the head, antlers and all, up straight like that by jut grasping the hide behind the neck

Color me skeptical. Huge buck though

Exactly.

Me too.

They way the pic fades into blackness behind them makes me think this is a setup. Probably some store where you can take your pic with your camo and weapon of choice.

Also, notice where the neck goes into the body. The hair doesn't align or look right.

Shopped.

Also, no blood anywhere, no tongue hanging out, no "dead" look in the bucks eyes...

Eta: on second look, you can't see it's eyes, but I'm skeptical to say the least...

Damn. Now that you say that it does look like one of those dress in camo and take your pic with this monster at a hunting store or convention

It would be very hard to hoist a head like that, as straight as it is, without holding the base of the antlers

I know a bunch of people that don't like it, but they consistently put you in stands where you see a lot of bucks and big ones. They have some of the best farms in the world for whitetails.

I saw that too... now I question the outfitter.

You probably go up there, pay 5 grand, kill a doe or two to have some meat to come home with and then they take you out to scenic location to take your pic with a stuffed buck.

They ask what horns do you want? 8 point, 10, or unbelievable?
