Well, if you're comparing the two in the pics I'd take that Whitey everytime.  That is a pig, any story to go along?

The mule deer is 27 wide straight across with triple eye guards on one side. The whitetail is 26 wide and a 7x5 that is heavy horned both opening day.

Both of those animals are huge...did that happen today?  Who shot those?  I'm assuming you didn't shoot them both.

I've seen that muley genetic in the Kettle Crest a lot.  In fact, I have a shed that looks practically identical.
