    Possible new state record buck in Minnesota




    MINNEAPOLIS – A Minnesota bowhunter may have bagged a state record 32-point buck.
    Twenty-nine-year-old Scott O’Konek of South Haven took the buck last week during the first of two special archery hunts at Camp Ripley.
    O’Konek tells the Star Tribune he was “shaking” after shooting the big buck from his stand with a bow and arrow.
    The buck might have the largest non-typical or asymmetrical rack taken by archery in Minnesota. The buck scored a preliminary antler score of 228. The current record is 225 set in 1989, according to the Minnesota Deer Hunters Association.
    After the antlers have dried, a conclusive score will follow in 60 days.
    The deer was an estimated 5 years old and field-dressed at 192 pounds

    Wow! If I were lucky enough to see a MONSTER like that, and then get to take it... Yeah I'll bet he was shaking, but look at the smile now. No use hunting white tail if he hunts for horns! Be hard to beat this one.

    My grandpa use to say those horns don't even make good soup! I would still be very proud of that rack!

    that's a lot of horn for sure. I'd be a nervous wreck between the time I shot it and the time I got down and found it. That's always a tense hour or so on a decent buck. This is my 13 point I killed a few years ago and even though I saw him go down I was shaking so bad I was barely able to get down out of my stand. I have 1 other deer bigger than this although it was only a 9 point and it was the first deer I ever shot.
