Pocahontas county. There is a small town about 1.5hours N. of us, but it's name escapes me right now. Anyway the next picture would be of me on the meat pole if I mentioned it. Not a lot of Deer in that area. I think we saw a total of 12 to 15 last year in 3 or 4 days, but there are some to brag about. That guy was shot a little over 2mi from any dirt road. Chasing does was his undoing. Jim had seen another a little smaller doing some preseason scouting, but not this one until the first morning. Last years deep snows may have hammered them hard last year.

We're close. I live in Murrysville and work at Children's Hospital.

Yes there are. Should have seen it-and maybe you did-but before archery became so popular and the place became built up, there were a lot more of them. Some monsters came out of Boyce park, unfortunately back then some where illegal. However, every year more than a few 140s plus have a tag put on them if the cars don't get them first.

I remember those days - it seems now that every other tree has a hunter sitting in a treestand with his bow!!

I seen a big buck a guy had up at Ultimate Outdoors on Rt. 286 just this past Tuesday - it was a HOGG!! Bases measured 6 1/2" around & it had 14 scorable points. Guy said he killed it near Penn Hills somewhere - it was a dandy!!

Campfire member buschpilot sent me these photos in 07. I hope he chimes in and helps explain the photos some and comments on what changes have been made since then. The cabin is/was an old farm grainery. I think it's pretty swank.

Hey guys. Here are some camp photos from ChipM. This is his Maine Deer Camp and she's a beauty.

who doesn't love a camp where you can fish when the hunting is slow.

and a couple of very "bucky" looking spots. I love this first one.

I've been in this camp with ChipM for about ten years. I did miss a few years though. The back door is about 6 feet from the lake. It's a beautiful place. There have been some big bucks hauled out of the general area too. Slightly differentiated terrain but mostly flat in the areas close to camp.

It takes no time to get back in from there and we rarely see others hunters. You can go forever in this part of Maine.
