PERSON 1:
I am hearing rumors that there was a large 8 pointer shot down by Bell Creek that could be potentially a world record deer? Any news to this?
PERSON 2:
Here's a picture of the horns with my father holding them. Green scores at 192" gross and 189" net. Shot with a bow last weekend. No one knows for sure, but I haven't found and 8 pt. That has scored this high. It was taken less than a mile from my house where we hunt. What a monster. Take care and good luck this season.
PERSON 3:
Check out this buck. It was shot south of Cannon Falls last weekend, it's a potential world record 8 pointer (see email below). The guy in the picture is Bob Banks he did not shoot the buck he owns and hunts some property nearby. The picture was taken at Corcoran's in Hampton. My father in-law went down there to look at it, he said the rack weighs about 18 lbs and has a 33" inside spread. The buck is just a freak, check out where he is holding the rack, keep in mind that this is only an 8 pointer, that's the crazy thing.

it's a huge buck, but a world record for what?

I wonder the same thing. Maybe record 8 point(weird calling a 3 point an 8 point :chuckle:)

The deer appears to have been poached according to reports.
Possibly shot during bow season with a rifle, which has not been confirmend.
But the DNR has confiscated the rack, carcass and meat from the "hunter" and also found 2 other deer in his possesion that were not tagged and taken before this deer was taken, which would make this deer poached even if it was killed with a bow.
So sad that this crap happens.....

I only said it looks photochopped from the way the skull looks around the edges.

It was/is truly a nice deer, too bad it was taken this way..

Who knows what condition the two deer were in that he had in his possession. Butchered and wrapped in paper, hanging in the shed. How long do you have to keep the possession tag? After it is eaten?
You are spot on with the story. That is the story the taxidermist told my brother and that is what he told me.

if it was killed in Minnesotta...its a damn 8pt
you fellas call it whatever you want in WA... East of the Dakotas... each point counts :bash: >:(
each year in Wisconsin and Iowa they kill WT over 205 inches...
not close to a world record unless someone keeps records for the best scoring true 8pt??

Update: This deer has been confiscated by the Minnesota DNR and there have been 13 counts filed in conjunction with an illegal take
This buck is supposedly a Minnesota archery kill. It is reported to net 189 green. Boone and Crockett Records do contain 8 point bucks that qualify, but not too many. This could well be one of the largest.

I love to listen to the East coasters... I shot a 10 pointer...
I even heard someone count the points on an elk and say they shot a 12 pointer.
LOL
