Anybody heard about a possible typical state record?

[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 4536086, member: 1409"] x 2 I recently saw a pic of a 13-point mainframe buck taken during our muzzleloader season segment in Houston County. This particular buck would outscore any of the above bucks depicted on this thread. He was a true 7 x 6 mainframe. For whatever reason(s), the person who checked it in doesn't seem to want any attention, much less having it officially scored. It was much more overall impressive than our current #1 Typical, and I believe would net out a higher score as well. That said, I seriously doubt we in TN will ever outscore the top [u]typical[/u] bucks of some states such as KY & IL, etc. But we will top our own current #1 Typical soon, as I believe we already have. But the main thing we're going to observe is that hunters are more willing to give a pass to yearling and 2 1/2-y-old bucks, which is producing more 3 1/2 and older bucks. Simply having more bucks in the 3 1/2 and older age classes means we have more bucks with larger antlers than in times past. Similar is happening in most other states as well. [i] NON-Ty[/i]picals are another story. A freaky non-typical can score a lot, while not having the overall mass of a much lower scoring Typical. I am not too shocked that TN is currently holding the world's #1 non-typical, just put it in the context of a freak of nature. Who knows, it could be knocked to #2 by a freakier buck from Florida.
