RE: Maine......big woods......BIG deer
Hey Airborne.......those were our words exactly when we finally got up to it.
neck4752......we were northwest of katahdin (the first picture). There is a whole different world up there with the logging roads and a bunch of heater hunters. To find these guys you have to hit the big ridges...find where their feeding and track em back to their bedding areas. These guys will put themselves in the thickest green growth during the day, and unless their rutting hard (which they haven't yet) they won't budge. Grab yourselve a GPS and get walkin.......were puttin on between 6 and 10 miles a day.
This guy had to have caught our scent while we were making our way through the christmas trees and bogs for him to move.......remember....a lot of hard work and hope for a little luck!!
