Shot by a poacher??(PIC)
My father forwarded this email this morning. It claims that the buck in the attached picture was shot by a poacher near Dryden Ontario and seized by the OMNR. It claims that the buck would have been the new world record by at least 41 points. I am not trying to start any arguements here (there have been far too many to begin with!) I am just wondering if anyone has the FACTS on this matter. Thank you .

Forgive me Nub, but what is the story on this buck? I have never seen the pic before and am trying to get the true story. Could you please enlighten me? Perhaps I do need to do a bit of catching up, but I honestly would like to know the truth about this buck. Thanks.

YLM; This buck has been beat to death on all the message boards. Heres a qoute from another site that sums it up.
You could also type in "Ontario buck" in the search feature and find some more.
The story is the deer was shot 1/2 hour after legal hunting time by a non-resident rifle hunter from Louisiana. He got cold feet and immediatly left the province leaving this and another deer hanging back at camp.
The Dryden Ministry office now has the deer. The 18 point grosses 223+ and nets 199-7/8 green typical. 12" of non-typical and an unmatched 7" tine kept this deer from world record consideration.
More info will become available after the investigation is completed.
