Dustin sent this photo of the huge buck his buddy Nick shot with his PSE bow near Aberdeen the weekend after opening archery 2013. It was scored unofficially at 172.5”. Will get the hunt report soon…way to go Nick, that’s one fine looking brute.
My friend Grant Kuypers of Buck Paradise guides American hunters to some amazing bucks each year…and this season he even got to hunt a day himself. Grant and his son Ian had been getting trail cam pictures of this unique deer living tight behind their house. Grant’s land is in the farmland area of Saskatchewan, miles south of the Northern Provincial Forest where I and other Americans must hunt. Only the locals can hunt the farmland. Grant showed me this cam picture when I was up there 10 days ago and said, “I really want Ian to get this buck.” Well, Ian was out of town one day two weeks ago when this giant showed back up. Grant called Ian [...]
Hey Mike, Huge fan of the show and site. This buck is about as good as it gets here at home (in central Arkansas). This buck was taken by the father of a friend of mine. The pic has been posted on some hunting sites here in Arkansas and was killed just about 3-4 short miles down the highway from my house. Thanks and keep doing what you do! --Ca'Lyn Zachary This is one of the coolest bucks I’ve seen this year, love those junked-up beams, thanks for sharing!
Mike: I have watched your show, I must say it is well put together, nice job. I watched your recent show on Wisconsin whitetails. I have another nice buck for you. Two long days on November 2nd and 3rd and I ended my weekend with this Trempealeau County giant. Straight 8, no trash or extra points. Teeth say he is 5 1/2 years old. My taxidermist put the tape on him Monday morning. 171 6/8 gross green. I still can't quit smiling. Take care, Gary Love giant 8s, great job Gary!
Today’s blog from fellow VA hunter Brandon. As I have said many times you never know what’s gonna happen in the woods. Hey Mike: A lot of folks are having a hard time finding acorns this year. I am one of the fortunate ones that discovered a small pocket of whites dropping. I have been watching deer here since opening day of bow season. This place is near perfect, but there are no good climbing trees in the immediate area. I decided I needed to hunt from the ground if I wanted a chance to get a deer with my bow. I decided upon a makeshift blind, and have been hunting it since opening day. Now for the real story. [...]
