Yes the buck pictured above is the anmal you are refering to. Scott Dexter took the buck near Macomb. 47 scorable points and a NET score of 294" B&C. IL's all-tme #2 BUCK!!! Here's a much better view of the beast.

buckeyebuckhntr,
That mount isn't to be releated to the rack at all. In fact it was a terrible taxidermy job and actually shocked many that seen it. I found out that it is a temporary mount because (as expected) the antlers have been sold! I believe BPS paid top dollar for them.
Noted IL whitetail authority Tim Walmsey said the buck was more than likely at least 7 1/2. They do have some sheds from the freak to confirm.
