UMMM, those ears don't look anything like Rompola's ears, at all...
his point straight to the ground....Keep lookin, and find me one that looks like that....I know how to make ears look like that, I just caped 7 deer this morning, all you have to do is Y split them behind the head, seperate the ear from the head (has to be done to saw horns off), then pull skin back together behind head, WALA... Tried it on several this morning, and guess what they looked like????
Post me a pic of a dead deer with ears just like Rompola's, straight down....

Distance between bases is no big deal to me, I know that varies, I have skull plates in my studio from Canada to texas, and they are all different size...
Rompola's deer also has another spot that makes it look very much like it has been Ysplit and another set of horns stuck in...Look at the strange dip in the skull between the two burrs...Only on the deers left side, not on the right...Never seen a deer with different bone on each side of the skull plate, or flesh amount for that matter... You believers also try and find a pic of a der wih a dent in it's skull like that...it isn't as obvious in that tiny pic on the first page of this thread as in some of the others you can find all over the net...

I don't care one way or the other,... but the pic I seen of the rampola buck the ears are droppy, as many pics I have seen of dead deer are, but in no way are they pointing straight down to the ground. maybe you can post the pic you are refering to..it may be a differant one than the one I am refering to....

Neutral- I won't post it due to copyright laws, but on another site is a live deer with two ears like that.
Just what is it you are implying?
So let me get this straight, the only way can find me a pic of a deer with ears hanging like this (like the deer has been Y split), is some freak of nature deer that you can't post due to copyright laws????
You can't simply find me a pic on this site of a deer with limp ears hanging straight down, like several of Rompola's deer on his site??? Especially the real wide ones???
And just for the record Rompola's buck looks stiff, eyes look like he has been dead a while, one almost shut, and yet the ears are magically so limp the point to the ground...
You will never get a taxidermist to buy this picture if he looks at it long...

I couldn't agree more.
Basically, you couple all of the "looks odd"..."sounds odd" stuff surrounding this deer along with the man deciding that "if you're going to question things about my deer because things look fishy, then not only am I not going to address anything in question, I'm going to just take my deer home and not let anyone see it ever again".
That only says one of two things...He's obviously either mentally ill or it really was a hoax.
Now some would say...well he's just a strange and reclusive guy, and was just simply taken aback that people thought there were some odd aspects about his story and his deer, and it drove him in to seclusion.
Well I have read everything I could find on this guy and the story of his deer, and I can't find anything that says he was a recluse until his deer mishap. In fact most things that I've read shows that he was in fact seeking the spotlite by living a life searching for that deer that would put him up on stage. It was after his record deer became a controversy that it appears he became a recluse
Let's see, you're entire life has been ruined due to the world questioning your honesty, and all you have to do is produce the deer and you immediately go from liar to hero....instantly. But you decide to just live in humility the rest of your life? hhhhmmm.
I personally thing everything about this story stinks of hoax to high heaven. Everything about it.
Please don't call me jealous because I think it is a hoax. He is probaly more of a deer hunter than I will ever be....most probably are. I had never even heard of the rampola buck until I saw the post, so I read one story about him and his deer. I found it so interesting that I decided to do some googling and I read everything I could find on the guy. And all things considered, the story just does not make common sense.

Great Droopy ear pics...
Now read the story and you will see why they are droopy, and bloody as well...
The deer was deffinately not shot throught the lungs (as Rompola proclaims) with a bow, it was shot in the back of the neck/head area...And judging from the looks of the ears, bullet deffinately did some damage in their area....
Come on guys, how hard is this, just find me a regular, shot behind the shoulder dead dear with super droopy ears...How can it be this hard, Rompala has several on his website (all of which have strange lookin super wide horns)
