The 2018-2019 Illinois Deer Season is coming to a close and for one hunter it will likely be a World Record year!

The season closes in Illinois after this Sunday, January 20th. Luke Brewster is experiencing a season only a season that only a handful of hunters ever get to be a part of. The disabled Veteran harvested the monster buck with his bow in Edgar County, Illinois earlier in the season.

Earlier this month the monster buck that he harvested with his bow was officially scored. According to northamericanwhitetail.com the deer being called the “Brewster Buck” came in with gross score of 330 0/8 inches and a net score of 320 5/8 inches.

That score puts Brewster Buck on track to set TWO new world records surpassing the current 294-inch Pope & Young non-typical archery world record and the current 312-inch Boone & Crockett hunter-killed non-typical record.

The world record determinations/announcements will be made later this year. However, how can they deny that this is the new world record for both?
