I personally think there are less 215 net typicals out there than we think....The Jordan buck remained king for what? 40 years or more?

There are probably a lot of bucks that are very close, but close doesn't count!

With that said, I know of 8x8 typical in my area that has yet to be killed..... I'll be interested to see what he scores if ever killed...

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

I think your right Coug! Most of these big bucks die of old age without ever being seen.

[8D]This is why if you do have a huge deer on your property you don't tell anyone, someone might advertise it on the internet!!!!!:D[8D];)[8D][8D][8D]

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

There are a few out there, but the difference between 200" and 220" is huge. People take 200" deer every year across north america, but add that extra 20" and the air really gets thin.

I have to disagree about those deer never being seen. I can only speak about places like IA, but here there are just too many people ( berry pickers, all kinds of hunters, trappers, horseback riders, random motorists, farmers etc....on every peice of property for a deer that big to NOT be seen. Hense, word gets around. There are no vast forested areas here. The Albia buck was known all over the state before it was harvested, I saw footage of it.

That being said, I know of a few rumors currently in the state, but maybe all they are are rumors and generally they are exagerations.

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

We need to educuate these people so they know what a deer's true potential is so they will let these 200" walk and mature a little.:D

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

I think the biggest factor is being able to take that deer in that ONE YEAR where he is at his full potential, and had the right antler configuration so he wouldnt be hurt by non typical kickers. One year he can be just a few inches short, the next a perfect, symmetrical rack that could break the record, and the next he can grow a few non typical points that really hurt the score.

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

man good luck to the guy
i think itll be IL or IA

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

I heard of a buck and saw pics of it from Iowa and it is said to gross in the 230's and net in the 220's as a typicalbut they couldn't officially score it cuz they have to wait for the 60 day drying period. Of course someone will beat milo hansons buck, there are deer every year that would have if they didn't have one small kicker point or a broken tine. Records are meant to be broken

I hope it falls to some kidhunting walk-inon public land. The kid that had to stay behind because there 'wasn't room' at his dad's lease. Wearing hand-me-down camo. Someone who doesn't care about overall herd health or supplemental feeding. Just out doingwhat he loves. I'd really like to see that.

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

That must be an awesome thing to see from a stand. It would be tough to do what you listed Rob. I do not know if I could keep my mouth shut. BY the way I never thought I would be mentioned in the same thread or breath as it relates to the next typical world record.....that felt good. Thanks Rob.

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

Your welcome Frank,;) Yours is such a great animal and referencing the bases on your buck gives the idea of the greatness.:D

Should be an interesting year guys. So who is already counting down to season opener? :)

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

There's a World Record in Alberta, I'm sure. Just ask Wane Zaft.;)

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

If there is one out there, it will be more luck than skill if it is taken. I just hope the luck is with me when he walks by in November, in Illinois, with my buddy Rob in the next tree videoing it all...LOL

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

tkycaller, that would indeed be incredible. I better be tagged out first tho!

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

Of course there's a world record out there walking around. Why wouldn't there be? There will always be a bigger one out there, thats why we do what we do, most anyway. As far as where it comes from, thats another story, but it could be anywhere that has good feed and genetics. Probably some "managed" farm somewhere in the mid-west. But, there's always that un-hunted piece of public land thats a little too thick, and a little too far.

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

Just start up our own scoring method. There is enough people on here it make it a recognized scoring system through out.

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

I think a world record could come from any state with whitetails, the midwest in general is a good bet. I have a couple on video from my area here in Missouri that are contenders. It seems there is always a sticker point or drop tine that will knock a buck out. I am after one now "next season" that if he stays clean would surpass 220, I have shown the photo's to many B@C score takers that agreed. I'm going to sit on him like a hen on eggs next fall. I did take a 205 but he was a 9 point and that knocked him out. Seems when a Buck gets 200 or so, trash and stickers are to common. I like Gross score and net just is soooooo tough. !!!

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

Where does this guy hunt?

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

Here is a contender, but trash will probaly knock him out!

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

I have several more to post, but will be carefull because I'm an outfitter, bad subject here in this forum. but would love to show you guy's the things that I see. I love to bow hunt and would love to show the things I see!!!

RE: The Next Typical World Record?
 

This is exactly why you should complain about someOutfitters! I don't begrudge any farmer making what he can off of his land, but that doesn't meanthat someOutfitters shouldn't do a better job of managing does. I am hearing rumors that the IDNR is considering forcing Outfitters to start taking more Does to keep their licenses. Over 90% of the deer harvested by non-residents in Illinois are Bucks. A recent article in North American Whitetail gave Illinois a 6 on a scale of 1 to 10 on their management of the deer herd even though it is ranked #1 in the number of Boone and Crockett deer entered in the bookoverall and number 2 behind Wisconsin in the number of Pope and Young deer overall.I honestly hope the next World record ISN'T taken in Illinois! The last thing we need is even more people with more Dollars than sense to come running to Illinois!
