Found this picture on the interwebs. Anyone know the story behind this stud? Never seen one with a build like this.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Looks fake to me. I never seen a dead deer that could hold his head up by himself

I have. Put the deer in a walk in over night at just the right pose, and BAM sits up perfect.
Also this axis is the new #1 LF free range axis.

But whitetails and axis can't interbreed!!
Bound to be one in the woodpile.
...or it's photoshopped. Something about that deer's left main looks superimposed to me.

Pick up the latest copy of LSON there is a story about it on the cover page.
Never been to a camping world. I prefer Dick's to be honest.

we darted a couple in the pasture one year while they were in heavy velvet and cut their main beams and got drop tines on both.

Why are they wearing that much Camo Especially since that photo was taken the next day or at least several hours later.

At first I thought it had to be photo shopped. I've got to believe some kind of cross breeding took place. I have definitely seen it with Mule Deer and Whitetails so why not Axis and Whitetail? Very cool looking buck.

Why are they wearing that much Camo Maybe they hunted for something else before they came back to camp and took the picture? And why do you care?
