The big buck from Indiana known now as the "Beck Buck" has been officially scored, and just comes short of taking the spot as the largest non-typical whitetail taken by a hunter. What a stud of a buck! Congrats to Tim Beck on a buck of lifetime! No matter the record status, this buck is truly one that will not be forgotten!
From Boone and Crockett,
The scoring procedure has been reviewed and after tine classification was verified this deer scores an amazing 305 7/8. Three tines originally scored as normal were deemed abnormal. On this particular head it took away 2/8 in deductions but when the H4 circumference measurements were taken with the correct classification the circumferences dropped a few inches resulting in a lower net score than the original posted 308 5/8. The final tally on this deer is 222 4/8 gross typical frame 93 7/8 in abnormals, and the reason that this buck’s final score ranks it as the largest non typical whitetail taken in the last decade and the second largest in hunter taken in history is that it only has 10 4/8 of deductions left to right.
