Bob Decker's "Field & Stream" Buck Scores 233 2/8 Non-Typical

Not a world record.

Is a new Wisconsin state archery record.

Official scorers with the Pope and Young Club ruled the animal's antlers as non-typical, disqualifying it from holding the world title.

Largest non-typical buck shot with a bow in Wisconsin history.

Bob Decker's deer still attained high honors shot it Nov. 1st, 2008 in Buffalo County. The 16-pointer, which officially was measured at 233 2/8 inches (all scoring is done in eighths of inches), is the largest non-typical buck shot with a bow in Wisconsin history, breaking the state's longest-standing archery deer hunting record - 231 5/8 inches - in place since 1979. The state's non-typical gun record is 247 3/8 inches.

"I didn't get the world record, but I got the most popular buck this year," he said.
