I just came across a picture that stated that the Kohler buck was the largest whitetail deer ever taken. I wanted to know how big the buck was, and where it was taken.
The largest whitetail ever recorded had 39 points and was harvested in Saskatchewan, Canada in 1940. This deer had a massive rack with a Boone and Crockett score of 307 5/8 inches.
The largest deer ever recorded in Arkansas had a spread of 47 points, scoring 305 7/8 inches, and was harvested in 2015.
The biggest deer ever taken was taken by Fifteen-year-old Tony Lovstuen of Albia, Iowa. It scored 322-4/8 points on the Boone and Crockett Club measuring system. The buck was estimated to have been between 7 and 8 years old and weighed better than 200 pounds.
The biggest deer ever record was a 412 pound whitetail, shot and killed in 2005 in Pennsylvania.
The largest whitetail deer on record is a non-typical buck known as the "Hole in the Horn" buck, which scored 328 2/8 inches in the Boone and Crockett record book. This massive buck was harvested in the state of Ohio in 1940.
We shot 2 bucks this year that had striped back hooves. This is the first time we have ever seen this. Michael I too have seen this, I was told by a DNR Warden it is due to an albino gene within the deer.
The Dolores buck from Colorado
The largest crap was taken by Randy Marsh in South Park episode "More crap". The crap was measured to be larger than 100 Courics.
The story of the top whitetail ever shot is as great as the deer. When 15-year-old Tony Lovstuen pulled the trigger of his muzzleloader on the afternoon of Sept. 29, 2003, he ended the reign of a buck that already was world famous. The Iowa non-typical had become known to the hunting world through Ron Willmore and Brian Lindberg's article in the Feb. 2002 issue of North American Whitetail magazine, in which trail camera photos and shed antlers of the then-living buck were shown. The magazine dubbed the deer "Iowa's Walking World Record," and the name was fitting. With a potential score of nearly 300 inches on the Boone and Crockett system, the Monroe County giant would indeed have been a world record if taken with either a bow or muzzleloader. Tony's dad, Doug Lovstuen, grazed the buck's neck during the 2001 gun season, and the next summer, trail camera shots showed that the right antler was stunted. Before long, that side of the rack actually fell off. But by the summer of 2003 the deer's rack was bigger than ever, as confirmed by more trail camera photos. Doug and his cousins, Steve Angran and Mark Murphy, decided it was time to pool their efforts to hunt the animal, which spent most of his time on their family's land. By then, plenty of other hunters in the area were also looking to make whitetail history. Fearful that the deer would be shot by a neighboring hunter or poacher, get hit by a vehicle or break an antler while rubbing, the family recruited Doug's son, Tony, to pursue him during September's special youth season. This early season allows a youth accompanied by an adult to hunt deer with a bow, shotgun or muzzleloader prior to the regular archery season. On Sept. 29, Tony accompanied Doug and Mark to a ground blind in one of the buck's favorite areas. That evening a small buck stepped out, followed by the one they wanted. Tony's 70-yard shot hit the buck in the midsection, and he was recovered the next day. The 38-point rack received a "green" B&C score of 322 4/8 - far above the existing hunter-taken world record of 295 6/8 - and soon the hunting world was abuzz with the news. The Jan. and Feb. 2004 issues of North American Whitetail had the first photos and details of the hunt, bringing the remarkable story full circle. Although a panel of measurers later reduced the Lovstuen buck's final score to 307 5/8, that was still enough to make him the "world's biggest hunter-taken whitetail." That designation and the events surrounding the deer's life make him a trophy for the ages.
