I just heard this morning that congrats are in order for one Bob Decker of Eau Claire, Wisconsin who managed to bag the Buffalo County "Field & Stream" buck on November 1st. It has been speculated that it may challenge the Hanson buck for the world record.

Has it been scored yet ? How old do you estimate it to be? Nice - I mean WOW! Congrats !

I didn't take it. It was taken a couple hours from where I live. They estimate it to be only 3-1/2 years old which is amazing for something that size. They did not green score it or if they did they are not releasing that information. From what I understand he is going to let the rack dry the required 60 days and then get it officially scored. I will post the official scores when I hear what they are.

Update taken from bowhunting.com.
On November 1st, 2008 while hunting in Buffalo County, Wisconsin, hunter Bob Decker took this incredible whitetail buck that is now the new non-typical Wisconsin state record at 233 2/8". The buck, with 16 scorable points, had a 20 4/8" inside spread! Even more alarming, both main beams of the monster stretched the tapes at nearly 28" long! The buck, which was a bow harvest, was reportedly field dressed at 200 pounds and aged at a mere 3 1/2 years. Incredible to say the least!

The incident hindered my response by a minute or so which could make all of the difference. In this instance - no, I still made the rig (it was an EMS call). However, the "What If" factor plays a key role - the other drivers passing me didn't know...

This is true. It's personally happened to me, I've heard horror stories about it, and someone I work with has even stated that she purposely does this as well. However, if it were her house on fire, or her husband and/or children that needed help,...
