NM State Record Typical - Broken?

[Agar426]

I apologize if this has been discussed or if it is old news, but has anybody noticed that the NM state record typical has been broken, since 2004? I was checking the web site to verify the application deadline. While there I noticed they had a listing of the state records. Well, lo and behold, Joe Garcia no longer holds the state record for typical mule deer. It lists a deer from 2004, with "unknown hunter" listed as the hunter. The list looks like this:

B&C Score Location Hunter Year
1. 213 4/8 Rio Arriba County unknown 2004
2. 211 7/8 Rio Arriba County Joseph A. Garcia 1965
3. 209 5/8 Rio Arriba County Kelly Baird 1984
4. 208 6/8 Rio Arriba County James R. Odiorne, Jr. 1978
5. 206 6/8 Rio Arriba County Robert J. Seeds 1996
6. 206 4/8 New Mexico unknown 1956
7. 206 3/8 Rio Arriba County Jim Roddie 1971
8. 206 2/8 Rio Arriba County Harley Hinds 1963
9. 205 4/8 Rio Arriba County picked up 1993
10. 205 1/8 San Juan County David A. Brooks 1995

Are there any pictures of this buck? Does anyone have any information at all about this buck?? Why not any hoopla over this buck, considering that it's almost impossible these days to hide a 200" net typical buck from the prying eyes of the internet....hell, when somebody kills a buck that grosses 200" it is usually on fifteen websites, three magazines, and circulating through email before rigor has even set in. Just wondering how this one slipped through, or did I just miss the train when it passed through??

Anyways....just curious!

I've asked all my buddies who are in the know, and I still have nothing.

Anybody know anything about this buck? I would love to see a picture.

Let me get this straight, a state record falls after 40 years, and nobody knows a thing about it? Somebody throw me a bone...

it's obviously a pickup and that would explain some of the lack of excitement.

I would agree, but I would still love to see some pics! Also, even pickups make the covers of magazines, and they don't net as high as this one does.

I'm not trying to nitpick, just dying to get some info or a pic!!

Don't want to hijack this thread but I noticed the #3 guy on this list is Kelly Baird. Does anyone know if this is the Kelly Baird from Bloomfield NM? I lived there a couple years when I was in Jr. High in 1975-77 and there was a Kelly Baird who lived down the road from us. He was a pretty good team roper too.
