As most of you are probably aware, the world record for white-tailed deer could be coming back to our great state of Wisconsin. The 12- point buck was shot by Michael Gregoire on a farm his brother owns in Sheboygan Falls on November 5. An official Boone & Crockett scorer, green scored the 4.5 year old buck at a whopping 217 5/8 inches.
However, a week later, the Boone & Crockett club posted a statement on their website stating that the Gregoire buck, although a great trophy, will most likely be classified as a non-typical buck due to an unmatched point on the left and a point off from the normal G2 on the right.
Regardless of the outcome there’s no arguing that any hunter would love to even have the opportunity to see such a beautiful animal and have an opportunity to harvest a wonderful trophy. Wayne Schumacher got his opportunity and took full advantage of it. On September 20, Wayne shot a non-typical 30 pointer with his bow just 9 days into the bow season. The buck was harvested in Fond du Lac County, Wisconsin.
These deer just prove that trophy bucks still love the badger state as much as any state in the Midwest. North, south, east, west; we’ve got them all over if you’re willing to put in the time.
Remember…there’s always time to be outdoors!
