Shot by Ed Broder in 1926 near Chip Lake, Alberta, this incredible buck scores 355 2/8 and still stands as the number-one non-typical mule deer in the world.The hunter died in 1968 without leaving a will and the trophy head was put in the safekeeping of his son Richard. But in 1973 brother Don Broder took the antlers. In 1997, the trophy was featured in a news photo and that sparked a law case involving Don Broder and his six siblings. In March, a judge ruled the estate of the late Ed Broder was entitled to the trophy and ordered Don Broder to hand it over to be sold and the money divided among the family. The judge also ruled Don Broder is entitled to the first $21,995 from the sale to compensate for the money he's spent on the trophy's upkeep.
