A Maine "RUT" Hunt

Hello to all. This video is the second part of my 3rd week of deer hunting. Traditionally this is what we call "RUT" week. This is the time when most bucks seem to be looking for a doe in heat. There is the pre-rut and post-rut but where I hunt in Maine, I have gotten most of my deer during this week because the bucks are pushing the does and the bucks are moving the most looking for does. I have been looking for spots I can sit in my truck this week because it has gotten much colder and me being a paraplegic who can not feel much of my lower extremities I need to be safe. I use distance to help hide my scent and my newest long-range rifle. My dream rifle is the Christensen Arms Mess LR in 7mm rem mag. I have done my best to stack as many odds in my favor. This hunt will show the rest. God Bless and Good Hunting! Maine North Woods Hunter (Shane)

Wow. I think I missed this video last year!! That was a heck of a shot. Good luck this coming season!

[@mainenorthwoodshunter3265]

Totally awesome! So happy for you man! I’ve watched the videos for a few years always hoping you have this day. That buck has a lot of character to it! I hope you got it mounted so you can enjoy him every day!

[@handy-capable7705]

Thank you so much! I had one a ton of scouting for this season. Fuel prices kept me out of KI for most of the season. I have watched the wind way more and paid more attention to a lot of things this year. I guess it all worked out

[@mikepalmer5888]

It looked like you shot that buck out the driver’s side window, which I know is legal for you, did you shoot him left handed? Tough shot to lean out there enough to shoot right handed I would think. Great shot by the way! Dropped him in his tracks! No tracking required. Ha ha

[@guthrieperry5077]

Awesome! What an accomplishment! Congratulations on your patch. I was shaking watching the video so that’s no way I could have waited on that shot. Way to get it done. Thanks for all the great videos.

[@mainenorthwoodshunter3265]

Believe me, after the shot I was shaking too. When he was broadside looking my way in the ditch my cross hairs were on him but there was just too much brush in the way. I was hoping he would get up onto the road and give me a broadside shot there. When he jumped onto the road and he sure looked like he was going to run down the road away from me so before the angle got any worse I put it on his shoulder and the &mm Rem Mag did the rest. God Bless and Good Hunting!

[@TheMaineWoods]

Shane that was incredible, great job, congratulations 👍

[@mainenorthwoodshunter3265]

Thank you so much. That has been a long time coming. I appreciate you watching. I did end up with a doe as well with my muzzleloader second to last day in my zone 14. That was a first as well, with a muzzleloader that is.

Good morning Shane, What a great shot! :) I am so happy for you buddy I was so open that you would have some luck with your 200 plus pound deer. Congratulations for 208 pounds. :) You're one of the few hunters that I know that work very hard at hunting. You make your own luck by putting the time in very impressive setting there all day. This was a great video someone left me a comment saying how awesome it was to see a plan come full circle. Now I'm saying it to you how awesome it is to see your plan come full circle with a monster buck like that beautiful rack. Enjoy the freezer of meat. :) Tom

Thank you very much. That deer was a long time coming for my patch buck. Thank you so much for watching! Good luck to you this season.

Sorry I'm late to the party.... But congrats on a wonderful buck.... You did not give him a second to think about getting across that road...nice shot

[@mainenorthwoodshunter3265]

Thank you! I have waited a long time to shoot a buck of that size. I being disabled didn’t want him getting off of the road so I am grateful he dropped in his tracks. Thank you for watching.

Wow!! Nice buck!!

[@boomerrangerron]

Wow, what a great shot! And I was so surprised that you're hunting literally on the road! I guess you know the area and what the bucks do during the rut up in Maine. Congratulations. And no tracking or dragging, shot him right near your truck! This is a perfect baby boomer hunt!

[@mainenorthwoodshunter3265]

Thank you! I drove down to the end of the road early that morning which was only another 500-600 yards down the road. I also knew about the trail that was there. I had watched it before. I am a paraplegic and am allowed to hunt from the truck as long as it is not moving. I was there from about 6 am to 2:00 when I shot the deer. There was a lot of sign in that area and I figured there was a great place to try because it was so far down the road. I was probably 15 miles down a multitude of roads hoping for the best. Thank you so much for watching. Hopefully I will be able to get another buck this year. Good luck to you as well!
