Hunting Deer
Our location in northern Maine whitetail
enthusiasts an opportunity to shoot the
"deer of a lifetime." Aroostook County is
renowned for its production of trophy
whitetail deer because this part of the
state has an average annual snowfall of 130
inches. Therefore deer are bigger than
their southern brothers due to the fact that
they need the bulk and size just to get
around. Cover is thick in most areas though
we have a good variety of woods including
hardwood ridges, old cuttings, cedar swamps,
and mixed growth forests. Deer begin to
move into deeper cover in anticipation of
snowfall as the season progresses. This is
where your ability to hunt comes into play.
You need to understand whitetail behavior,
track and still-hunt shrewdly, always aware
that an experienced buck will double back
and come up behind you at almost any time!
If you prefer a guided hunt, we have our own
tree stands set in areas where whitetail
bucks have been traveling. Typically,
hunters set in their stands until mid
morning. Then, we still hunt, take a lunch
break, and still hunt some more until
sitting again in the afternoon.
If you
prefer, we can also hunt along the lake
using a boat or canoe. Areas along the lake
are very rarely hunted because they cannot
be reached by vehicle. We ask that you
advise us ahead of time should you wish to
use a boat so we can have one ready for your
hunt.
