Just got this from a friend --- Hope it is real!!!
----------------------------------------------------
Shot by a 15 year old kid with a muzzleloader Monday September 29 and not
recovered until the next day. DNR WERE involved. They were informed of the
deer's existence and the harvesting of it. They were taken to the harvest
site. All appears to be kosher. Filming of the shot did not happen due to
forgetting to load tape into the camera. There are numerous trail cam pics
this year and last I am told. Randy McPherren and Dale Ream did the green
score at 322 4/8. It would seem that the buck was only 3 1/2 years old when
the first pics were taken and the Lindberg sheds were found. The deer was
harvested right in the area he had always been. The "Grandfathers" farm just
outside town. He may have only grown one antler last year. I have held a
shed antler found right there that seems to be from him.
This deer will be the highest scoring hunter taken deer yet known. AWSOME
and great provenance.

This deer was just taken by the boy on the right. The
boy has muscular dystrophy and is in a wheelchair, yet he managed to
shoot the buck all by himself. This buck has one base coming out of
the head that is 16 inches around. About 2 inches up it splits into
2 beams and the deer's C-1 measurements are just shy of 10. The deer
carried the mass all the way to the end and had just over 68 inches of
mass. I believe the brow tines on this buck are roughly 14 and 11
inches and there is a 12 inch forked point coming forward from
between the brows. We found the sheds from this particular buck in
our preserve from last year and when he shed he also shed the entire
bone between both antlers as well. There is about a 1" piece of
extra bone from his skull on the inside of both sheds, which explains
this years unique rack.

Found out more about it. It was killed in an enclosure so it can't be entered into the books. It's definitely a unique deer, though.
