Strongly agree with this, in bigwoods you really need to have a little of everything in your bag of tricks. I also think this is where you really need to let the scouting take over, you can walk miles and find very little sign and then boom you hit a primary bedding area and the the place is just lit up with sign. Have to be on the best of the best bedding because the good stuff is usually full of small bucks and does and average bedding just doesn't get used much in wolf country.

Another good one.

Question: How would you access and set up on a deer in this scenario that you described? And wind direction as well.

Great video Dan, I think this will surprise a lot of hunters that big woods bucks can be taken by the road.

I shot a great buck in Michigan's Huron-Manistee National Forest right next to a woods road, big woods at it's finest. I had found the buck bedding area while spring scouting. I rotated to this area in the gun deer season and was startled to see a big hunting camp set up on the road (opposite side) a couple of hundred yards from the bedding area. I waited until the hunters raced off from camp after lunch to go to their stands (no one had a clue about the big buck bedding area). I snuck in and 20 minutes before dark downed a buck when he stepped to the edge of the thick cover (the most secure bedding in that area). I dressed the buck and tied him into a cold stream as I couldn't take a chance of any of the hunters seeing me.

The next morning the hunters all charged off to their stands... when I knew they had all left I raced my truck down and parked on the road right in front of their camp... ran a hundred yards to the buck, raced him out and got him into the back of my truck... and got the heck out of there.

The butcher's scale put him just over 200 lbs dressed.
