Title: Possible new state record arrowed
Post by: Gobble Gobble on September 09, 2009, 09:23:11 AM
Does anyone know the current archery typical Mulie record for WA? A buddy of a coworker arrowed what they believe to be a contender for the new state record on Monday. It's a 6X6 and grossed green @ 203 1/4.

We have been trying to find out but F&G said they don't keep a record, B&C and P&Y want you to buy the record book.

Sorry, I do not have pics and I'm not going to say where it was arrowed but my co worker has lots of pics and it is a toad!!! 33" wide.  :drool:

That would make better sense.  I heard of a 230 33inch wide one that just got dumped out on the firing center.  (I wonder if it was the same deer).

I figured it was stretching a bit with a 230 typical score.   Course I guess some folks measure in gross and not net, but in reference to the state record, again Net should be used I suppose.  I heard it was a dandy and I am upset because thats one I won't get to film. LOL

They know net is what counts for the books that is why they are wanting to know for the shrinkage factor.

I think there are a couple Franklin pigs that aren't on that list.   *censored*S are going to bump me a notch lower.  J/K   I need to step up my game.

1. 171 3/8 Chelan County 1994

Am I reading that right? The state record is only 171 3/8? If that is correct then this pig isn't going to shrink 30" and its a new record. They thought it was somewhere around 197+.
Title: Re: Possible new state record arrowed
Post by: boneaddict on September 09, 2009, 10:00:28 AM
I don't think those numbers are right, unless my memory has gone to crap.  Ok it has gone to crap because I can't remember what mine scores.  I was thinking 178 3/8.  He grossed 193.  and I was like 3rd for a long time.
Title: Re: Possible new state record arrowed
Post by: jjhunter on September 09, 2009, 10:06:30 AM
The typical record was 189" net for years.  In '01 or '02 a 202" net buck was arrowed in Franklin.   
Title: Re: Possible new state record arrowed
Post by: jackelope on September 09, 2009, 10:08:46 AM
i don't think i would ever rely on anything that the nw big game record book says mainly because i don't think enough people enter into it.
that is, however,  a copy and paste directly from the site.

Post by: boneaddict on September 09, 2009, 10:13:46 AM
I think you are right JJ.  Its right at or above the 200 inch mark.  A muzzel buck and an archery buck were both hammered there at about the same time, or back to back archery bucks maybe even.

You are right Bone, two big typicals.  Both top 5 all time for respective weapons.  One archery, one muzzy!  Pretty cool!  We also have the #3 all time typical for any weapon - old timer out of Chelan.  HOG 218" and change net!

Title: Re: Possible new state record arrowed

Looks like the extra points are just stickers that will add character but not hurt the score much.  Wow, not too many of those in Washington.

the state record is 204 net. from franklin co. in 04' i think.

that thing is awesome!!!
Title: Re: Possible new state record arrowed
Post by: Gobble Gobble on September 09, 2009, 11:24:18 AM
It has been rumored where it was taken but not confirmed and I'm not going to confirm where. I can say it was shot in its bed and had no clue he was even there. He has been after this buck for at least 3 years when he first missed it.
Title: Re: Possible new state record arrowed
Post by: buckmaster_wa on September 09, 2009, 11:31:30 AM
Thats cool that hes been on it for three years. I heard he got the buck in okanogan county somewhere.

Title: Re: Possible new state record arrowed
Post by: Hillbilly270 on September 09, 2009, 11:40:23 AM

I think its funny that we cant confirm where he got it.
I heard he got it at NW Trek........just after he fed it a hot dog. :P

makes a guy feel pretty good to be living that close to a world class deer.  I saw a shed from year before last that was probably from him.  It had the same giant fronts and a "weaker" back.  That is just too cool.

Well this is what the guy who scored the buck said when he scored it just a few hours ago. But he said he usually is about 1-2 inches below what most official scorers get on average.

I hope it hits 200 in the end.  It has almost the exact look as mine right down to the curling mains, large fronts and that damn weak back.  He has a  little more on every count though.  Mine grossed 193 but had that extra damn point and not matching eyeguards.  Mine had a little more outside, but I bet he has more inside.   Out of any buck I have seen lately, I actually think this one has a shot at 200 net.  I know it doesn't matter as that buck is King no matter what, but it would be cool for him and the hunter if it met that magic mark.

Wow.  Awesome Buck!!!  Can't wait to hear where he actually got him.  Someone said the Okanogan..  Would love to have the genes of that thing running around even in the same county I hunt!!! 

Read through the post again.  It says multiple times on here where it was shot.  Was not the Okanagan.  Here's a hint.  The place starts with a "Yakima" and ends with a "Training Center." :chuckle: 
:chuckle:
i didn't get it either.


I didn't see anywhere in the thread before I posted, that said Yakima Training Center.. ??But someone had said Okanogan.. I could have overlooked it or it was in a link I didn't open but don't think so.  But thanks for the correction.

I talked to the YTC officer about that buck yesterday. He said that guy logged in out there 30 times this summer for scouting.

Sorry Kimber I was just being sarcastic.  It was shot in the Yakima Training Center.  Some will be pissed becuase I spilled the beans.  But who cares it's not like it's not already public knowledge.  It's not like when they interview him that info isn't going to come out.

There's more info on this guy at muledeercountry.com. Looks like he just going to make the 200" mark. And will be number two in the books

If its really that close he may drop under that mark after the 90 day wait.

The only thing that could help that mammoth rack would have been to have a few spruce in the area. ;)

Some dark color would make that monster look even better.

No problem. I figured as much..  I just wasn't familiar with what "YTC" stood for.  The whereabouts will come out so who cares if you said it.

This is a beautiful buck. Congrats mark, thanks for the update!

Mark had it on display at the Yakima Sportsmans Show two weeks ago. He won several awards for it in the horn & antler competition. Not sure of the final scoring somewhere around 193" after drying but it did stretch out another 1/2" for an official 32" wide. Mark said he is wishing now that he had gone with a full body mount and not the shoulder.

He had it caped out for a full body when I saw it.

That would have been a perfect candidate for a lifesize too. They just dont get much bigger than that for a typical archery buck. Man thats a stud buck.
Title: Re: Possible new state record arrowed
Post by: Pathfinder101 on March 02, 2010, 08:45:43 PM
I disagree.  I think that full body mounts of deer always make them look small.  Let's face it, a deer is not an elk.  They just aren't that big of an animal.  Most people, (especially those that don't hunt) will stand next to a deer and say "Geez, they're not that big, are they?".  On the other hand, a head and shoulder mount of a thick necked, rutted up buck, hanging above eye level on a wall gives the illusion of a larger animal. :twocents: 
Flame on :chuckle:

Pathfinder101 The Buck is a early archery deer, NOT a rutted up deer.  Probably short sleek hair a shoulder mount of a August or early Sept Deer sometimes can look even smaller, almost like African animals.  Summer weight skinny Deer with shorthair and 32 effin inches would look AMAZING, people would say  :yike: HOLY CRAP look at those antlers  :twocents:.

 I agree, a full body buck with a 32" spread would have some serious WOW factor..   :o
