I've always said...snow is a game changer when hunting the low deer densities of northern Maine. Without it, you might as well be walking on the moon in search of your big buck. The first week of Maine's 2023 deer season offered us a few good days of tracking snow...and the chase was on. With the bucks at peak weight and not roaming too far early in November, this was our best opportunity to catchup to one of the giant Maine whitetails that can really tip the scales. That's exactly what happened. The entire hunt was an arduous 3 day adventure with many highs and lows. However, it all worked out in the end. Enjoy!

My hat goes off to you for not quitting, alot of people would of moved on and been back out hunting the next day. Glad you found it and congratulations. That's one you leave the tailgate down through town. Live in southern Maine and the first year I got game cameras I was surprised at how big bucks can get it Maine, half eaten and still get your patch!

Only a weak man gives up. I spent 2 hours looking for my deer the other day. I wouldn't have stopped. I have a thermal monocular so I can locate them easier. I can see blood droplets daylight or dark due to that slight temp difference. The faster I move the better. Once the body reaches the outside temp I will be stuck using only my eye's without that wonderful device. If there is one tool to get in your hunting bag. It's a thermal IR monocular. Takes the guess work out and if you hear a crunch in the woods you will be able to determine if it's a deer, human, squirrel, or whatever else is around.

Nice recovery never give-up you did that old warrior buck justice in that recovery. I enjoyed the traditional style of your gun hunt with your dad and the tracking, brought back allot of memories for me. I mainly bow hunt now a days but when the rifle comes out ( I am out west) a 200-300 yrd shot is very common and I am setup to shoot out to 800 yrd with per-calculated ballistics. Growing up in the eastern woods a 150 yrd shot was a long shot back then, good times in the old deer woods. Thank you for sharing congratulations nice old buck.

Hunting was the only thing we ever had in common, now at age 47, i weap like a child thinking of all the things i should have said, but didnt. He passed 3 months after mom, makes life so empty feeling, especially with holidays quickly approaching.

Amazing hunt. I've said for a while now that the Drurys and Bowmars have their food plots and manicures, trail cameras and treestands. The northeast trackers have some boots and a compass, remingtons in tow. Although this hunt does remind me of something I heard Ron Spomer say at some point. A lot of whitetail hunters have never taken a shot over 100-150yds, and a lot of the rifles they use are set up with irons or low power optics, and this was no exception. But what happens when the biggest buck of your life is in an opening through the woods or across a clear cut at 300yds. I get that this shot was an extreme rarity in tracking but it also makes me glad that I have 2-12x scopes and shooting sticks. Although next year on my trip to Maine I may have something lower magnification. One thing, in maine you don't have to worry about meat spoiling in an hour.

Our pine covered mountains at 8k-10kft are typically less dense than your timber. So, bought a new old stock(stopped production in '92) Sako Forester Mannlicher carbine in .308. Waiting for it to arrive. Picked up a vintage USA Burris 3x-9x mini at the gun show last weekend, and a friend gave me some vintage Sako rings to match! Pretty pumped! Thanks for your videos brother!

Paul congrats and atta boy on that beautiful Maine monster! Was impressed at the time you took with that far shot, you owed it to that animal to give it an ethical death and you did! Really dig the channel and hoping your pops gets a whopper on the pole too!

Absolutely outstanding video. Congratulations to you guys on may levels. Making a shot that far, not giving up, recovering the deer and a monster deer at that. Well done, you guys truly are an inspiration. My vacation starts next week and hitting it everyday. How did you end up with the meat, was anything salvageable? All the best to your dad for the remainder of the season. Regards Mark

Congrats on being able to recover the buck. But you should have just given him a couple hours to expire on his own. You pushing him right away after the shot is why he live as long as he did. You could have saved yourself tracking for miles.
