If you are into shed hunting it is a great time to combine with deer scouting for next fall. Gathering intel from the network. Spring Scouting can lead to strategy for next fall especially for hunting the big woods. Logging can change where feed grows which can affect where you find the deer next fall in the big woods. For Hal, signposts remain his most sought-after sign in the big woods. Voting for LD 814 Coyote legislation probably won’t pass. What kind of forest do deer live in – birch and poplar or maple and yellow birch with soft woods mixed in? Start by road scouting in the spring. What can you surmise looking up and down a culvert when riding the road? Why can the onX hybrid mode help you scout in the spring? Are hardwood ridges where you can see the furthest be the best places to set up in the big woods? What is one of Hal’s best tips for scouting in the spring?

Our guest is Tim Farrar who is an expert coyote hunter from Maine and been hunting ad studying them since early 70’s. Anti-hunting legislation being heard in legislative session – Bill LD814 anti-hunting assault on coyote hunting year-round. After we recorded this podcast, Maine House Bill LD 814’s public hearing date was changed to April 3rd. 2023 at 1pm in the Cross Building Rm 206. Why ???– coyote population in Maine has thrived even though hunters have hunted for decades. Nothing is driving this bill from a scientific perspective. Tim talks about a transient population being as big as a resident population. Pups drift from the mom in September. Territories can spread out approaching 100 miles. Coyotes can kill a moose??? Once a female coyote is bred, they will move into deer yards for an easier food source. Do coyotes influence the bobcat population? Spring Thaw is sold out. Thanks for all your support.

Rick shares details of some of his last hunts and it is jam packed with tips and some close encounters. When you feel you are close is when the wind game starts. 20 to 25 ft. bounds going down hill off mountain is a big buck. Buck just knew that a road was there, so he paralleled the road for a 1 ½ miles then swung back up the mountain. When do binoculars come in handy? Deep snow stressed deer out and probably caused them to lose antlers early. Sneak and peek into the wind. Yut, Yut I think so!!! Knocking snow way up high buck probably has a high rack. 2023 Spring Thaw Tickets go on sale – only 50 available to buy them online now. Don’t forget to use the discount code for your onX membership.

Coyote update – deer are pretty much spread out and not concentrated. Team member Stephen Schanz shares his deer season after he finished guiding clients. Stephen shares a good example of how deer habits change as food and cuts change. Deer dig for food near planted red pines but not sure what they feed on. Got to sound like a deer when hunting in crunchy conditions. Bucks with white antlers primarily are rubbing on maple and poplar. Shooting through whips at 70 + yards with a muzzle loader is difficult. The hunts when you don’t get the buck seem to be the best lessons to learn from. I beat the buck but didn’t kill him???

Does his own chiropractic work. What to do when you get leg cramps form walking too much. In the north winters are a major controlling factor of deer herd health.

We are proud to announce our new partnership with . Our guest is Lawson Glidden, President of Minus33, who shares the long history of his company and their extensive product line. Layering is key to dealing with weather changes while hunting so Lawson shares his wealth of knowledge on Merino Wool and why his products stand out from competitors. Trying to battle the elements of Mother Nature we deal with as outdoor people can be life or death if you are not prepared. This conversation fits right into the we have created. Vital information for any outdoor person. Moose hunt - 2nd season a lot different than 1st season. Don’t scout to early if you have 2nd season tag. Trail cam pics can be a curse – good indication of the moose in the area but moose might not be there when you hunt. They go on a mission just like deer do during the rut. Alder rubs with broken stubs from years past much better indicator then random rubs. Hal is a fan of running and gunning even at first light. Some old bulls just like old turkey’s don’t talk too much. Guide Mike says get into their living room during 2nd season before you rack or call. 2nd season seems to be better to rack brush then call in some cases.
