Possibly a high fence buck.

https://www.facebook.com/elchaparralranch

Taken on a hunting ranch in Mexico.  They offer both high fence and free range - but this deer is highly likely to be part of their high fence genetics.

"Sonora Mule Deer
El Chaparral Ranch stands as the Premier Trophy Mule Deer hunting destination in North America. Renowned for its record trophies and continual record-setting achievements, our goal is to produce Record-Breaking Mule Deer.

Our Highly Managed Estate Mule Deer Hunting area, covering over 6,000 acres, offers a wonderful experience for any Mule Deer enthusiast. We consistently harvest exceptional trophies in every category, including multiple world records. Each hunt regardless of Bronze to Diamond categories is offered the 5-star El Chaparral Ranch experience.

These hunts are in high demand, so we recommend making your reservation well in advance. Separate from our Estate Hunts, our Free Range area has over 60,000 acres of well-managed premium hunt area.

Recent years have yielded several records, including the #1 typical Pope & Young, the #3 Boone & Crockett Typical Mule Deer, and many other trophy bucks each year eclipsing the 200” mark.

We believe offering Premier Estate and Trophy Free range hunts, paired with our luxury El Chaparral Ranch experience make us the premier mule deer hunting destination. All Mule Deer Bucks need to be minimum 5 1/2+ yrs. old in order to harvest."

Can you imagine that buck trying to walk a hundred yards in thick brush? It's a good thing someone finally put him out of his misery so he doesn't have to suffer anymore...

Maybe you could run up and break a few point off to lower the coast when no one is looking and glue them back on later.  :chuckle:

I'd do it it if I could afford it... Like a lot of other things...  :chuckle:  I watched a video of a group of 5 down in Mexico that rode around in trucks with lift cages drinking all day shooting 30"ers like it was common practice... Looked like a blast!  :chuckle: To each their own!
I love you... I really do...

That is a monster buck. But, the way they took the picture makes it look bigger than it is. Buck is out in front of hunter and head pointed out even farther toward camera. That along with them rolling the antlers forward and even closer to the camera has a big factor also. Hard to tell just how big that buck is the way they photographed it. The actual head and face of the buck looks like a younger buck to me but I could be wrong on that the way the face and head were rolled downward so the horns could get closer to the camera and make them look bigger.

Its a 250" buck. I don't think they need to make it look bigger. But, I agree, those are some deceptive angles and pics. As always. Not for me. I'll take a 190" diy, public land mountain mule deer any day of the week over livestock.
