Brian Inda's Buck - New Wisconsin Typical Archery Record

For those of you that think that off season shed hunting doesn't pay off in finding a trophy buck to hunt you should talk to Brian Inda of Wautoma. 

Inda's brother, Chris, had received permission to shed hunt the property where he found a pair of massive sheds.  Sheds that scored 192 inches.  They had just identified the backyard of a buck that, if harvested, could become the new typical state archery record.  The problem was that they did not have permission to hunt the property.

As fate would have it, Inda and his friend, Craig Carpenter, would later find themselves on a construction project adjacent to the 120 christmas tree farm that the shed were found on.  It was through this turn of fate that Inda and Carpenter would learn that they property was available to hunt through a lease.  They waisted no time and  quickly signed a three year lease to hunt the property.

The two men set several stands and camera on the property to try and pattern this big boy. They had several pictures of the buck from their trail cameras confirming the big buck was still around.  They hunted the property sparingly throughout the fall making sure to play the wind right, but they had only glimpsed the buck one time before a grunt call brought the buck to within fifteen yards of Inda on that November 2, 2010 day.  A well placed shot from Inda sealed the fate of this record buck.  They found the massive buck only seventy yards away from Inda's treestand.

The 12-point, Waushara County buck was scored by a group certified Pope and Young scorers.  The 7.5 year old buck had an official net score of 187 5/8 inches making it a new state record surpassing the previous record of 187 2/8 inches by Barry Rose's 2006 buck shot in Dunn County.
