OK..I see a pic & the score sheet were received by B&C yesterday according to the facebook link you posted. Cool! Their web site & Trophy Watch will probably be updated with it soon now. Only a matter of time now! Like the link said...NT scoring is tricky. Will be interesting to see where the numbers fall. BTW...thanks for the additional pics.

......PER BOONE AND CROCKETT TODAY......This deer will be "ACCEPTED" within the next week or so and an announcement will be made, then it will be panel scored in 2016 and it will go "OFFICIAL". SHOULD be the #1 whitetail non-typical buck ever killed by a hunter and 3rd largest whitetail non-typical buck in the Boone and Crockett club.

319 Gross, check it out on Field and Stream. World Record Buck: This Could Be the Largest Non-Typical Ever Shot By a Hunter | Field & Stream I agree the first pics don't do the deer justice. I also agree nets are for fish and give the buck credit for EVERYTHING he grew, not what someone who started a club said that deer should be. Some of you probably do understand the scoring system I have no doubt, however I think we all agree pictures can make a decent buck look huge and a huge buck look decent. This fortunate hunter obviously didn't take very good pics or has not let them out. I'm not betting on the latter. We should also realize that just becaue a member only has a dozen or so posts doesn't mean that person isn't in the know.

Not much on BOONE & CROCKET club. So what you're saying is that they have ACCEPTED the score by the ONE guy that measured the buck as final until 2016. I always thought that before they were accepted a PANEL of JUDGES had to score the rack after the drying period. Interesting.

good luck to all

the dog

Do you realy think every Boone and Crockett animal has to be panel scored? There are many Boone and Crockett animals scored every year and most scorers have no idea when one of these animals is coming to the scorers house to be scored. So should they send the guy home until they arrange a meeting with a few other scorers? That would be darn near impossible. This is why people who are Boone and Crockett scorers go through intense training so that thry are competent in scoring trophy animals and don't need others to help them make decisions.

That's true for this NT buck. After the end of each awards period (every 3 years) all NT bucks over 250, like this one will be scored by a panel. Their decision will determine the official entry score. The B&C 29th awards period begins this year. Since this buck was just submitted for entry, it goes into the 29th big game awards period. The the scoring panel for the 29th awards period will meet in 2116.

only 10" of deductions... very symmetrical... if you an see it. It will be interesting. B&C measuring seems like a boon-doogle at times. The King buck, THat big buck that was soot 12 years ago in Canada by the archer. Yep, it must be panel scored before being offical. Thanks for clearing that point up, Rhino.

good luck to all

Though B&C has received a score sheet from a veteran, official measurer, they’re waiting to view pictures and a video tape of the rack to confirm the buck was scored properly. Measuring a non-typical, particularly one of this size and caliber, can be a complicated process. B&C officials would review the tape before affirming the scoring process was correct, and the buck would still have to be panel-scored before an official proclamation was made.

And as said above we will not know for sure until 2016

so thoretically this "new record" might not be able to profit or claim the new record until 2016?

Who knows about the profit part of your question. My best guess would be yes if the owner of the trophy wants to. As for the official score, or claim of the new record for a hunter killed buck...it won't be offical until the panel meets in 2016. The Missouri Monarch still stands as the world record NT at 333 7/8 but it was found dead in St. Louis Co., MO in 1981.

The panel for the awards period usually meets in April. I believe there are 11 judges picked by B&C for the panel from their official scorers along with a few consultants. B&C has a quarterly magazine publication called Fair Chase. I'm betting there will be an article about this buck in their next publication, if it's not too close to going to the presses already.

New WORLD RECORD!

I've done some detailed checking into this since its only one county away from me.

Current pictures and story are horrible. The pics will all be redone once the mount is done.

The buck was killed after he was jumped by pheasant hunters on public ground.

The guy who shot him didn't know about him.

Several individuals did and have several cam photos of him. He was never seen during the daylight.

Bass pro has offered 500,000 currently to add to the King of Bucks Collection.

The score will stand more than likely.

A person scored the buck who actually teaches for B&C. The first scorer contacted declined to score the deer because he knew what he was looking at and they selected the individual.

Thanks for the update Pat. I agree with Martin about the $$$ & trophy thing. With that said, $500K is a lot of money. With that kind of offer, I could certainly have a replica made for my wall and let Bass Pro have the original. A good replica is expensive but it's just a drop in the bucket compared to that offer.

Thanks for sharing the story with us Pat. Funny how these stories go.

NOT TO BE...Maybe!

Beck Buck Comes in as #2 NT Hunter-taken Whitetail.

The scoring procedure

has been reviewed and after tine classification was verified this deer scores an

amazing 305 7/8. Three tines originally scored as normal were deemed abnormal.

On this particular head it took away 2/8 in deductions but when the H4

circumference measurements were taken with the correct classification the

circumferences dropped a few inches resulting in a lower net score than the

original posted 308 5/8. The final tally on this deer is 222 4/8 gross typical

frame 93 7/8 in abnormals, and the reason that this buck’s final score ranks it

as the largest non typical whitetail taken in the last decade and the second

largest in hunter taken in history is that it only has 10 4/8 of deductions left

to right.
