![]() There are only 40 typical whitetail bucks that have netted the 170-inch minimum required to qualify for the B&C record book, but that elite group will likely have another member if Keith Marquardt enters his 2021 Kansas buck. Keith Marquardt’s Great 8 Keith Marquardt’s Kansas tall-tined monster should pull off the rare feat of netting B&C as an 8-point. Zerl Lyon’s “Mufasa” Buck Zerl Lyon, 10, poses with a local-legend buck named Musafa. With an unofficial green net score of 196⅞ inches the buck should smash the state’s crossbow typical record (currently 179⅞”) and rank among Wisconsin’s best typicals ever. After several tense moments, the buck finally gave Christorf a chip shot and tipped over after a short run. The avid hunter paddled across a river to grind out multiple sits for a buck known in his neighborhood as “Hector.” And the effort all paid off on October 28, when the huge buck walked out of a cornfield and into the 5 acres of woods Christorf was hunting. Well, that plus woodsmanship and a whole lot of determination. Kevin Christorfįive acres and a canoe was all it took for Wisconsin DNR conservation warden Kevin Christorf to tag one of the Badger State’s best typicals ever. Kevin Christorf’s Sure-Bet Wisconsin Crossbow Record Kevin Christorf’s Wisconsin typical should shatter the state’s crossbow typical mark. While the buck has plenty of stickers, scorers say it has a chance of besting the state’s 188⅝-inch bow-kill record. Meadows made good on the shot on a main-frame 5X5 that green grossed 210 inches. When the 180 looked into the timber and postured, Meadows followed the buck’s gaze and saw the monster heading his way. Meadows hesitated, thinking that bigger one might give him a chance one day-but he didn’t know it would be that day. Meadows was bowhunting on November 3 when the 180 showed up and walked within bow range. Zach MeadowsĪfter tagging a nice buck in Oklahoma’s early-muzzleloader season, Zach Meadows was still getting trail-cam pics of two other great bucks on his property: a 180-class non-typical and an even bigger buck. Zach Meadows’s Potential Oklahoma State Record Zach Meadows’ 210-inch giant could threaten Oklahoma’s current archery record. Jordan Smith’s 180-Inch 8-Pointer Jordan Smith’s main-frame 8-pointer grossed 183 and change. I honestly didn’t think I’d ever have a chance at a buck like that in my lifetime.” Read the full story here. “I was honestly at a loss for words when I walked up to the buck,” Torres recalled. Bass killed a 155-inch 8-point the first day and, not to be outdone, Torres answered by arrowing this 6X6 monster that green-grossed 199⅜. That extra effort paid off in November when the pair returned to bowhunt the rut. When Holden Torres and his hunting buddy, Austin Bass, drew a pair of Kansas nonresident archery tags, they made the long drive from their Louisiana home to scout and obtain permission in July. Holden Torres’s DIY Dandy Louisiana bowhunter Holden Torres got hunting permission on a handshake-and tagged a nearly 200-inch beast. Thome’s Illinois giant, a main-frame 5X5 with several abnormal points, is said to have green grossed 226 inches and could well be the highest-grossing typical tagged in the country this fall. Retired MLB slugger and Hall-of-Famer Jim Thome was known for coming up big when the situation demanded it, and he used that cool-under-pressure poise to make a lethal shot on a buck he’d been chasing for three seasons. Jim Thome’s Major League Monster Thome’s incredible Illinois buck is likely the highest-grossing typical whitetail of the year. Dustin Huff’s Potential World Record Crossbow Buck Huff’s Indiana giant will likely be the new crossbow world record and the new No. We’ve got huge velvet muleys, great 8s, a crazy cactus buck, and a bunch of other whoppers to prove that just when you think deer hunting can’t get much better, it does. ![]() Of course, those big typical whitetails aren’t the only monsters to gawk at below. To give you a sense of how rare, one of my B&C scorer buddies described the first buck in this gallery (Dustin Huff’s Indiana behemoth) as “one of those typicals that only comes along once every three decades or so.” It’s rare for a buck to grow such a huge set of antlers without also sprouting the kickers and drop tines and forks that would push it into the non-typ category. But what makes this year’s edition so special is the number of 190-class-and-up typical whitetails, a couple of which are the largest I can remember covering in recent years. Like always, we’ve got some 200-plus-inch, gnarly non-typicals on this list. Every year when I’m putting together this roundup, I think, We can’t possibly top last year’s.
