billrquimby Report post Posted March 6, 2011 There were scissors and airbrushes long before Photoshop came along. I wouldn't even try to guess how long it would take for a rider to lose his head when that bull decided to shake those antlers. Bill Quimby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coues 'n' Sheep Report post Posted March 7, 2011 LOL! So True! I'm calling fake... a bull elk has a sloping back to some extent and a horse does not... the back of that saddle is too high... cool pic tho! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AntlerObsession Report post Posted March 8, 2011 I agree that the stance of the bull is unrealistic. With how high the head is and how vertical the horns are, that elk would have some serious spine issues walking like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bighorns Report post Posted March 28, 2011 Real, if it's not, it is a great fake. But the maker should be both proud and ashamed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Couesforever Report post Posted April 4, 2011 110% fake, the saddle is not even flat next to the blanket in the rear part of it. Also the right side Latago and striup is transparent through the Elk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
