guess its going to be the new record
Sorry to keep you all in suspense. After measuring last night I was exhausted. That was a lot of bone to measure and it takes a lot of time when trying to be ultra precise. But despite all of that, we have a new, "pending" Pope and Young, Non-Typical Whitetail record. The final score was 196 5/8. This tops the Crouse buck by 1 4/8". It is truly an awesome buck and I am very happy to have been involved as the official measurer. I had never met John before and found him to be a very humble young man and a dedicated whitetail hunter. He told me the details of taking this tremendous animal with excitement but I found that talking about taking his sons deer hunting was what delighted him most.
Today the records chairman at P&Y confirmed that the Maryland ranking at this time would be #1 when the scoresheet is accepted.
Have to leave for a few hours. Any questions ... fire away.
Doug

eshoremd - I've been looking for a web-site that has the top record-book deer listed by state and weapon category, or at least for the state of Maryland, and I'm having no luck. Can you point me to the right place?

I don't know how current this is, but here is some info on MD's big whitetails.... www.american-hunter.com/BigBucks/Maryland.htmIF this link is correct then this deer is NOT a MD non-typical record....maybe he meant typical??? Great deer regardless of score. |

taken directly from the md dnr site Maryland’s Record Book Deer Maryland’s best white-tailed deer with typical antlers came from Kent County. It measured 194 0/8 and was bagged during firearm season in November 2002 by Kevin C. Miller. The best nontypical antlered white-tailed deer totaled 228 4/8 which Jack Poole bagged in Montgomery County during firearm season on November 1987. The best typical white-tailed deer taken with archery equipment came from Talbot County and measured 183 3/8. Petey Councell bagged it on November 11, 1994. Yates Clagett took the best non-typical white-tailed deer with archery equipment in Prince George’s County. It measured 220 2/8 and was harvested on November 5, 1995. The best typical white-tailed deer taken with a muzzleloader measured 178 6/8. It was taken by John Gweazdowski in Baltimore County on January 2, 1994. William Shields bagged the best non-typical taken with a muzzleloader on December 7, 2001. Bill took the deer in Talbot County and it totaled 199 3/8. All top sika deer were taken in Dorchester County. A sika firearm harvest taken by James Howdyshell on November 30, 1994 measured 75 7/8. The best sika deer taken with a bow totaled 68 1/8 and was bagged by Theresa Henriksen on October 10, 1996. Henry Williams Jr. tagged the best muzzleloader sika harvest on December 19, 1992. This sika deer measured 74 6/8. www.dnr.state.md.us/wildlife/gpar/gpdeer.asp he may "possibly " have a record typical archery kill "if " they can justify it as a typical. i think it is more of a nontypical myself. i also think the guy who scored it dont know shit. he may have posted the "gross' score before deductions. once the deductions hit it , it wont be nothing but a great buck . not being mean or spiteful its a great deer period but no record there. |

tact (tãkt) n. Acute sensitivity to what is proper and appropriate in dealing with others, including the ability to speak or act without offending. some people well most say i have no tact lol. truthful as hell but lacking tact . hey the first step to recovery is acknowledging the facts  lmfao |

. i would kill that buck in a heartbeat believe me. not meaning to belittle the kill at all...
