A 12-point buck shot Nov. 5 in Sheboygan Falls, Wisc., will almost certainly become the new Pope & Young world record typical whitetail and has a strong shot at toppling the Milo Hansen buck from the top spot in the Boone & Crockett record book as well. Taken by Michael Gregoire on his brother’s farm, the 4 ½-year-old whitetail grossed 217 5/8 inches typical when green-scored by an official Boone & Crockett scorer.
Update: Jack Reneau over at Boone & Crockett's Trophy Watch blog tells us they think this buck will NOT score high enough to beat the Hansen buck. From the Trophy Watch site: Numerous recent articles have been brought to our attention claiming that this buck has a green score higher than the Milo Hansen World Record Typical. While it is indeed a very impressive trophy for any hunter with any method of harvest, it unfortunatley will most likely not approach the 200 inch mark for typical whitetail deer. You can read their full report here.

Fantastic Buck!
wow man congrats great buck!!! I hope its a record if its not it close i sure would like to see the record come back to the U.S.A congrats again on a well done job
Truly awesome hope to get mine next week in Southern Illinois!!!
It would be nice if the record was a home grown buck. That is truly what a call a hog.
That is a massive buck in all proportions!
Now ... I'm jumping off of the F & S website, and I'm going to try and get me a big one!
C'mon Out Monster!
big
there area couple interesting things about this story. #1 is the fact that he shot him from a blind. that is very impressive in my eyes. #2 is how he pulled him off of the first does with a grunt call. congratulations. awesome trophy no matter what happens with the record.
This is truly a magnificent buck -- definitely world-class -- and to think he was taken by a bowhunter in a blind! Awesome!! However, my bet is, when this buck is panel-scored by B&C, he's not going to beat Milo's buck. Based on past history, B&C is not going to accept a new world record typical whitetail that has any "question marks" regarding the scoring -- and this buck has several of those. Still, no matter how the official scoring turns out, this is the kind of buck ALL whitetail hunters dream of taking!!!
George!, I told you to put the cap back on that bottle of steroids.
Great deer!
amazing deer! amazing story! would have like to see a couple nice close up shots... but hey great deer, great shot, and great job... bringing the title back to Wisconsin baby! git 'r dun!
Amazing deer- I'd love to see a follow up story once its determined whether or not he's a record.
Awesome to see a deer like this come out of my state. I printed the picture off this morning first hour of school and showed it to everyone who hunts.
My wife works with this guys cousin. Does that make me famous or a better bowhunter? (Posted from my treestand)
1 nice buck!
Awesome buck!!!!! I think it might be ruled non-typical, but either way an AMAZING trophy most can only dream about, great job!
Reminds me of the Jordan Buck with all the mass and height.
Great buck . congradulations. this is what dreams are made of. YOUR GOIN TO DISNEY WORLD!
Big deer but it wont beat the Hanson buck and will be hard to beat the Jordan buck, but i wouldnt pass him up.
This is an incredible buck, no matter what. you have got to protect that thing and great shootin. good luck beating that.
awsome buck hopefully you'll get the record
Man that's a nice buck! Hope you got the record!
These pixs are pumping me up for NYS southern season here this weekend. Woo Doggie. Had to be a real rush when he stepped into view. Congrats.
Did the same thing as Muskiehunter, after that almost every hunter is still day dreaming
If that's not a record it's gotta be darn close.
Incredible deer but hard to tell with the lame-o pics taken from 60 feet.
nice buck but sorry this will be lucky to make 180 net score. what surprises me is how small the body is on this deer. must be those food plots!!!!
i read about this article in buckmasters and they said that comparing the score of this buck and the 213 record is like comparing apples to oranges, which i dont get. why have different scoring? why is a 217 lees than 213?
Nice deer!!
That thing is like a cross between a moose and a deer the antlers are so palmated! ( i think that is the word for it)
Awsome buck in every aspect...but a new record???? Lets not forget what happened to the Zaft buck out of Edmonton he lost on points that shared a common base. I see that happening here as well.
Congrats on a great harvest!
Can F&S pleas change the title on this story? There is no way this thing beats the Milo Hansen deer. How about,"Giant Whitetail Taken with Bow in Wisconsin?"
That would be a better title.
From what i have heard there is a investigation going on that this buck was taken illegally. I hope it is all wrong. Nice deer
