Hurteau: New Ohio Muzzleloader Record Has Longest Main Beam Ever!
By Dave Hurteau
Remember the exclusive photo gallery we posted this fall about the enormous Ohio nontypical whitetail taken by Brian Stephens the opening day of gun season? At the time, we told you Stephen’s buck would almost certainly shatter the state muzzleloader nontypical record, with perhaps the longest main beam ever recorded.
Well, it’s now official. Yesterday afternoon I received the following email from Brian:
Dave,
We had our official scoring for Boone & Crockett and Longhunter on Saturday at the Ohio Division of Wildlife District 5 headquarters. Several state media outlets covered the scoring.
The Buck scored 250 1/8" gross, and 232 5/8" net Non-Typical for a new Ohio Muzzleloader Record and #8 All-Time for North America.
The left main beam, at 35 1/8", is the longest ever, and the right main beam, at 34 1/8”, is the 2nd longest ever.
The deer's 9pt main frame scores 218 1/8" Typical.
Congrats, Brian. Incredible buck.

O-H
I-O!!!!!!
OHIO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not only a huge rack but it also has character. Heck I would be ecstatic to shoot a mule deer that big..very nice indeed
WHAT COUNTY WAS THAT KILLED IN???
Congrats, that is an Awesome Buck.
I'm sure glad I live in Ohio. Mabe one day I'll get a chance to kill one half the size. Great buck! Congrats.
Awesome! Buck of a lifetime!
I-O!!!
O-H-I-O!!!!
YEAH!!!!
Awesome deer
Congrats on the amazing deer!
This thing is a freak and there are none like it in OH. Don't come around. It would be a waste of your time.
Nice to see he shot it with the muzzleloader equivelent of the crossbow. I thought inlines were excluded from muzzleloading records??
I love whitetail hunting in Ohio. For those of you still hunting. I saw a group of 6 bucks tonight. 3 were 1/2 racks and 3 still had full headgear. (the largest buck still had both antlers)It was a scrappy bunch. They were going at each other all night. I was hoping one would knock an antler off but no such luck. 3 more days until the end of the season. :(
Great buck. wow
What a trophy. The southern half of our great state of Ohio is getting in the books year after year. The fact that the majority of our deer are grain fed makes for some wonderful table fare too. I can only hope some of those transplanted Kentucky elk wander north to really put the icing on the cake.
Super Buck Brian, congrats!! But like Shane said that's a one of a kind here in Ohio. If you want a buck like that I'd hunt Iowa or Illinois. Total waste of your time to come to Ohio. No bucks here!!
To Walt Smith: Takes a real man to knock the type of firearm a guy shoots an absolute trophy with, when your picture shows a buck with a high power rifle.
Not just beams but tine length! Wow what a buck!
sweet buck congrats
Awesome Buck!!!!!!!!! Great job
Incredible buck Brian way to go. If you need someplace to store the mount I just happen to have an empty spot above my fireplace...
Like Firehunter said go to ILLINOIS. I-L-L-I-N-I!
But not so much Iowa.
:( S-U-C-K-E-Y-E-S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is an amazing deer. What a specimen. I would feel blessed to even see a deer that size let alone bag him.
Wow, NICe Buck!
congrats!!!super nice buck!
Its nice to see people give a deer like that time to grow like stephen did instead of running out and shooting him the first time they saw him. Very cool that he wasnt on a deer farm or orperation of that sort shows that Stephen is a deadicated hunter that we could all take a lesson from. And to Walt Smith your knocking muzzeloaders and you have a high powered rifle in your picture how far away from that buck were you when you killed it??
