The internet is burning up with reports of the "new" world record whitetail. The stud 12-pointer apparently tallied a gross green score of 217 5/8 which puts it as the new No. 1 for both P&Y and B&C. The hunter, Michael Gregoire of Sheboygan Falls, Wisconsin, shot the 240-pounder last week.
Great buck, Mike. The heartiest of congratulations. World record? We're rooting for you, but...well, we've been down this road a few too many times to embrace an early score. What do you guys think it might score? Better than Milo Hanson's buck? Or how about Mel Johnson's long-standing P&Y record? We'd love to hear your thoughts.
If youd like to be on or off this Upper Midwest/outdoors/rural list please FR mail me. And ping me is you see articles of interest.
Put me on the list please.

That’s a green score and will not get close to the Hanson buck in net score.
With a "two fer" do you add the two scores?
Hey Donc Mon Hostie! Dats include deux points automatiquement for havin’ da name Gregoire comme du monde!

Quit posin’, start cookin’.
Got my doe for the season in the freezer in nice, neat little packages of yummi-ness! A gift from a friend; I've got no time to stand around in the field these days; well, that's my excuse, anyway. I just don't have the buck lust I used to have in my younger years. ;)
I'll be starting a thread in the near future for everyone to share their venison recipes. I'll ping ya. :)
Now that’s a pretty rack! And he got it with a BOW, no less. That’s impressive! :)
He is a machine... Both of those are brand new state records. That one has 31 points.
