Hey Roadkill welcome aboard! Come on down and sit a spell,tell us about those big northern bucks you hunt. You'll get used to the path down to Maine Forum and if not I'll put some reflective tacks in the trees to bring ya in! Lets hear from you and give us a deer report from up your way and of course let us know how your hunt is going so far.

Hi Woods,
Don&#39;t think I&#39;ll ever get used to these machines http://www.jesseshunting.com/forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif
Not much to say about my hunting. Been seeing plenty of does,passed on several smaller bucks. Hoping to get a crack at the monster I&#39;d scouted before season,and saw on the opener...at 1,000 yrds or so http://www.jesseshunting.com/forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smiley-rolleyes-green.gif
He&#39;s been my work-week hunt, but haven&#39;t been able to get into his field since this last snow, not enough time for a long hike.
I know of four or five bruisers that have been taken, including a 265lb 12 from Stockholm.
Been spending Sat. in the Oxbow area. Bucks were scraping up a storm the first week, but things seemed to have ground to a halt last week. Man, I wish I could have been up there after the snow early this week. I&#39;ve several groups of does staked out, it&#39;s just a matter of time before the big guy shows up. Maybe this Sat. http://www.jesseshunting.com/forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smiley-biggrin-aqua.gif
Haven&#39;t talked to Tom from the Oxbow lodge this week, but as of last sat. they had hung 4 over 200, all with real nice racks. Said he expected to hang 7 or 8 this week, I&#39;ll find out.
Thanks for the welcome

Welcome aboard Roadkill!! Good luck getting your sights on that big boy. Jeez, I don&#39;t know what the heck I&#39;d do with a 265lb. buck in front of me...that is one large critter. What is the heaviest you have heard about overall. I think I&#39;ve read on the net or something about a 270lb. buck taken up your way... DL

http://www.jesseshunting.com/forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smiley-wavin-yel.gif Hey, don&#39;t forget your neighbor! A friend of mine shot a 244 pounder in Andover, NH last week. (Next town over from me). Biggest one from nearby in a while. One from northern NH last year dressed 272. See, we have a few big ones, too!
HeHe!

Roadkill,
The big one was 1,000 yards away? Don&#39;t tell Woods, but I&#39;ve got a gun you can borrow! SHHHH http://www.jesseshunting.com/forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smiley-banghead-yellow.gif

Its OK Brownie I know you would lend him that 7mm-08 http://www.jesseshunting.com/forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smiley-biggrin-aqua.gif I believe he would be better off with my 300WSM,I&#39;d be afraid of a detached retina with that ultra thingy.
