Default Another Record Buck in NE??

Anyone know anything about this deer?? Just received the e-mail today. Once again, not sure if it is legit or not?? I find it hard to believe, but you never know!! This is what I got:

[FONT='Arial','sans-serif']He shot this near Steele City this fall (winter). Biggest typical
Whitetail taken in Nebraska EVER[/font]

[FONT='Tahoma','sans-serif'][/font]

He's holding it at arm's length. It makes them look bigger. LOL!

This is the story that goes along with that picture.

Scott Yetman was guiding for Diamond Willow Outfitters last fall, and was rewarded by being allowed to go on a hunt of his own. This giant buck was the result, and is reported to be Scott's first deer ever! Reports are that it will score approximately 190 as a typical, but it has not yet been officially entered.

I got the same pic but with a different story. The story i got was that it was a new world record from Sask. Canada.

Kind of like the mountain lion stories or the 400#plus pound deer that was supposedly shot on an indian res. last year in NE, and then it circulated around more last year and even in to this season as being shot in several states on some other indian res.

So I take this new "record" with a grain of salt

So your telling me this dude is a "guide" and yet has never shot a deer of his own?

I sure hope he is a rabbit guide or something.

I also thought it was funny that he was a guide in this area and then was rewarded with a hunt and shot this deer.

"Uhhhmmm, let's go over here, there aren't any big deer that way..."


It'd be like you or Josh shooting a snow goose with a neck collar when you have paying customers along.

"Wait until I call the shot... BANG! OK, now you can shoot em."


I know you guys would never try such a thing.

Check here Boone and Crockett Club before you post all the pics of the buck your cousins' sisters' uncle-in-law who knows a guy at the local barbershop that cuts the hair of someone who says he shot a world record buck.

Just being cute, but seriosly check this site when you get al these e-mails, most are of bucks we have already seen for two years or more.

Flora in background appears to indicate a location far north of Nebraska.

Fromt he Boone and Crocket site. Interesting how the photo is reversed. pretty clear photoshop.


Scott Yetman, AB 2006

Alberta Whopper December 7, 2007This photo has been making the email rounds, but no information has yet followed. Whatever the story, this is a truly impressive whitetail. We'll update you when we learn more.

UPDATE: Scott Yetman was guiding for Diamond Willow Outfitters last fall, and was rewarded by being allowed to go on a hunt of his own. This giant buck was the result, and is reported to be Scott's first deer ever! Reports are that it will score approximately 190 as a typical, but it has not yet been officially entered.

LundLover, the first picture and that picture is clearly two different pictures to me. Even has sleeves off in the second picture and might even have a different sweatshirt as the first one looks blue, and the second looks black. What are the two guys who say photoshopped seeing?

Yup. I should have looked closer. It was a smaller photo, so I made an assumption. Interesting though that it is completely different backgrounds, though I suppose that he could just be on different sides of the deer in a tree lined, open field.

I want to know how anyone can hold some of these monsters up with an outstretched arm and a one or two finger grip. That thing looks like a pig and I doubt anyone could hold it up the way he is holding it.

It's not hard to make the sleeves black or even paste on different arms. It's hard to tell on such a small pic, but I doubt many people own a camo vest that has the same pattern as their heavy camo coat. Also, what do you suppose the chances of catching that exact same expression twice are?
