Nice rack on a tiny deer,if you could put those antlers on a northern white tail it wouldn't be so impressive.I see he's using the "big fish" pose.

Idon't know...a 7 x 8 with at least a 26" spread (well outside the ears) would look mighty impressive on any Northern Deer.

That rack would be fantastic on our little Sitka Blacktails!

I didn't mean to offend anyone,it is a nice deer.When I see a pose like that,(intended to deceive in my opinion)it just rubs me the wrong way!

Yup.......... I live in the land of big whitetails and that is still a nice deer regardless of body size. I am actually hoping to wrangle a whitetail hunt for my wife and I in Texas next winter. It is warm down there in December and January after our seasons close. Holidays have to involve fishing or hunting. 
I would be pretty tickled to get something like that on a Texas whitetail hunt.

Hells Bells the guy isn't sitting six feet behind the deer, he actually has a hand on the rack.
Ripp thanks for posting.
rglenz, right oh, lets see some photos of your Northern Whitetails. For comparison sake and also for our enjoyment.

Sorry John,I don't have any photos of of the bucks I have taken,but if you insist I can take some pictures of some antlers and a mount when it warms up a bit.If you want to see photos of a big buck,larger than I have ever taken..... google"Knisley buck".That deer was shot a few miles from my farm,I have seen a couple that big,but never got my sights on them,my wife did but that's another story!

I worked with a guy years ago form MN..he had taken a MONSTER whitetail..something like 29" inside spread..6x6...was one of the most amazing whitetails I have ever personally seen..
The N Dakota state record whitetail was shot about 10 miles from my parents farm..another monster..typical scored somewhere around 204 or 206???
