Yeah as far as seeing anything like that, it is remote. That one you got is one of a kind for sure.But it's possible to get another big body high scoring rack,after all you are going back to a Provence and area that has genitatically big animals so that's in your favor.Has The guy showed you any pics of big deer either harvested or sightings since you've been there last?
Just remember it doesn't matter how good you are, experience and knowledge help, but it's all about being at the right place at the right time.I havn't shot a buck since 2004.I saw one monster buck a couple of years ago that was as big as the one I killed in 2004 and probebly would have netted much higher in scoring.But that's the only deer I've been interested in killing since that year.Mind you I have gotten a few moose and elk over the course of this dry deer hunting hunting spell. Anyways all the best to you.I'm suppose to be off hinting over the labour day weekend but the whole caribou region in my province is pretty much up in flames.My town is full of smoke.
I won't be the least bit surprised if ministry of forests and ministry of
wildlife close all backyard camping, hiking and hunting this week.The last thing they want is to be evacuating hikers campers hunters off every mountain at a huge cost to taxpayers.Oh well see what happens.Anyways good luck this year DD.

That is a HOG DD! I've never seen mass like that before. There was a guy who took one off of our land like that a few years back (scored in the upper 170's) but not that big. They grow them big up north don't they? Hopefully I'll see one like that in Kansas this year.

This one was killed about 80 miles from my house. Gives me hope that a real monster is out there:



Only one more month til muzzleloader and bow season open up!

You're only about 2.5 to 3 hours from me now.

Do you hunt locally there? If you take 81 south an hour or so you're in some great mountain country.
