Wonderful things, wide angle lenses, especially 18mm & shorter... 
Still a fantastic rack for all that. |

Looks to me like there is enough antler there for knife handles, pistol stocks and maybe a rifle stock if you wanted one.

pretty much standard for deer farm genetics...bred for the Asian "horn candy" and medicinal velvet market.... the top photo could well be taken not far from here.

Looks like they win the most points award. I wonder how old they are to grow that large. Maybe eating more than grass for their diet.

there gets a point were there is too much especially if it is not naturally occurring.

the benchmark for a red stag has always been 300ds some where around 40"x40" and 12 EVEN points
I do agree Slimjim but if these fellas get out/jump fence thier projony will look the same,the genetics have changed by selective breeding and it was going on in europe long before they were brought over here,funnily enough when they got here and didnt have competition and had unlimited feed they grew the biggest and best antlers anywhere in the world.......but MOST were reasonably even and very very few had more than 18 points,with 12 being a good stag.
