Had to do a double-take to make sure it wasn't am elk!!! Wow, beautiful.

I had to do a double take as well. The first time I saw him was early morning, just at sunrise. He was headed up a steep ridge. I did think he was a raghorn bull elk, as there is a small herd of elk that stay on the same ridge.

That is one heck of a buck, congratulations! Your taxidermist did a great job, money well spent.

Here is a side view of him, and you can see how he did look like an elk at a distance in low light.

I had his head in the freezer, wanting to save the velvet, yes, a big chest freezer. Anyway, a couple buds from Iowa and Nebraska shot their antelope, and needed to get them froze. So, I lost the velvet, and the fake stuff would have cost me $3 per inch, and there is over 200 inches there. He looks just fine hard horned.

I clicked on this link hoping it wasn't just another whitetail from someone's farm.

I am sure glad I did, because THAT IS A FANTASTIC MULE DEER!
