Story and Comments.: Ohio non-typical caused quite a stir in the early 1980's when it was discovered in an Ohio bar where it had hung since the early 1940's.

It has 45 points, a spread of 33 inches, and an official net non-typical score of 328 2/8 making it the second largest non-typical rack ever recorded.

Few people know that this deer was not killed by a hunter, but, rather, got its antlers entangled in a chain-link fence. As it struggled to free itself, a sharp wire in the fence impaled the antler, leaving the hole for which the deer is best known.
