My son and I were going over some photos and we came across this one. Steven asked if this was a decoy or real "Goat"....Note the side mirror on the truck......

Don't know why, but something about it looks phony.

I think it's real.  I have taken many pictures like that out of the truck window.  I think the light was just right to almost make it look like a decoy.  Decent buck though.

I'd shoot him first, then sort out whether he's real or not.....  :bigsmyl:  

But.....that one's real!

Looks like a decoy...but I agree with Tim, you never know...

Looks kinda fake but then sometimes people go a little overboard adjusting sharpness, contrast, etc in photoshop and they come out looking like that.

If it's fake it's an amazing reproduction.

does look 2-d as mentioned but i would have never  given it a thought if the question wasnt asked.

Luke Vander Vennen

Real. There's a bit of a glint in the eyes, that makes it look real. If it is a fake, that's incredible.

Its real or a full bogy mount. I just saved the photo over to another program and zoomed way in on it you can se hairs sticking up off of him.

OK Fellas...thats a real Antelope. We were on our way to Elk camp when this guy came charging across the road chasing another smaller buck.

I stopped the truck and took this photo. He just trotted off...didn't have a "goat" tag on me...

Photoshop and not a very good job.
I find the older I get, the less I used to know!
