I saw it said he shot it with a muzzle loader. Was it an AR15 Assault rifle automatic muzzle loader?

During the rut, bucks do a lot of battling over the does. I’m surprised this guy’s rack is still fully intact......

the deer was probably getting tired of all that weight on its head... looking to get shot.

My suspicions suggest a well fed game farm animal. Yes, such antler growth is possible in the wild but has anyone noticed how MANY such deer have been harvested since game farms, genetically altered deer and specialized foods have have surfaced. With that said, it is indeed a very nice set of antlers and congratulations to the young hunter.
