Friend of a fruend huh? Sorry to break it to you thats a pen raised deer. Look at the color of his antlers he hasnt even rubbed anything. Cayse there was nothing to rub inside his fence.
That light color could be because he was killed in velvet and it was removed after the kill, or just shed.
Have a look at this one.

his post says he JUST killed it. pretty late to be fresh out of velvet. every year photos of whitetail and elk just like this with no rub stains on their antlers get passed around online as "going to be some sort of new record" and its always "a friend of a friend" or "my bosses cousin" or some other such crap. id bet the farm thats a farm raised buck but whatever.
yeah okay, so i guess he just killed the thing which was a one in a million giant with a hormone imbalance causing it to be in full velvet in november, and then stripped every bit of velvet off of it for the photo before he even skinned it or anything... man youre reaching.
