What a great episode! Lanny’s stories are priceless and there are nuggets in every one. Wish we had them all recorded. There’s a really good chance Lanny is the best buck tracker to ever play this game.
My dad has the original book “How To Bag The Biggest Buck Of Your Life” by Larry Benoit. I have been through that book from to back, countless times. I used to look at the pictures before I knew how to read when I was little. And I’m now 48 yrs old. I’ve always been amazed how the Benoit’s hunted. And in my opinion, Lanny is the best of the best. There’ are ALOT of incredible deer trackers and hunters, but there’s only one Lanny Benoit. A prime Lanny tracking a buck was pretty much untouchable. I can’t even imagine how many bucks have fell to his trigger finger.
Thanks Bob for another great podcast, i met Larry Benoit back in the eighties when we were wiring a condo in Waitsfield and he was taping sheetrock when i lived in Barre and also bought his book, How to bag the biggest buck of your life and didnt even think for him to sign it. Thanks so much for the Bear hunt a few years ago. Looking forward to more! Tom McDonald U.S.M.C.
