Potential world-record nontypical buck taken in Tennessee
By Ben Romans  Published November 14, 2016

The buck has a green score of 308 3/8 inches.

The word in the woods is Stephen Tucker of Gallatin, Tennessee may just be the most famous (or blessed) whitetail hunter in the world after he reportedly leveled his muzzleloader and killed what could be the largest whitetail shot in the world — a 47-point monster (yeah, that’s “4” and “7”)—just days after his gun misfired and he passed on a questionable shot on the same animal.

Tucker, 26, told The Tennessean he saw a big buck (estimated to be 3 ½ years old) and tried to shoot it last Saturday, but the powder charge didn’t go off. The salt in his proverbial wound was he spied the same deer later that day, but he didn’t get what he felt was a clean and ethical shot.

“The way I see it, every time a man gets up in the morning he starts his life over. Sure, the bills are there to pay, and the job is there to do, but you don't have to stay in a pattern. You can always start over, saddle a fresh horse and take another trail.” ― Louis L'Amour

Well I guess 'Turdy Point Buck' ain't worth playing anymore.
Ahh, what the hell...

I sure wish someone would convert that thing to the Western Point system...
