How to Read The Woods and Track Big Woods Bucks with Legendary Deer Hunter Hal Blood

Hal Blood is a legendary deer tracker, known for hunting big woods bucks that weigh over 200 pounds by following their tracks through the snow. A skilled outdoorsman, and a Maine Master Guide, he passes his wisdom on in this podcast, as well as through his books and KZbin channel Big Woods Bucks. He is revered as one of the best deer hunters in America and also one of the best guides. Due to his guiding service taking up a lot of the season, he has less time to hunt than many of the other top trackers in the country, which make his accomplishments that much more impressive. He's guided hundreds of hunters for deer, bear, and moose.

Just want to say thanks. I've been recently diagnosed with lukemia and been in nonstop treatment. This season is the first in 45 years I'm missing. Your podcast may seem like no big deal but for me they are giving me a reason to push thru everyday. 2025 I will be back in the big woods! Keep these coming please !!!

@@jstjst2111 thank you, and sorry to hear, but I will pray you get better. one step in front of the other, just like tracking!

That was fantastic, what a wealth of knowledge! I guess the only question I had that wasn't talked about much is the process of dragging a 200 pound deer two or 3 miles. It's super hard to kill one but it kind of seems like the hardest part is actually getting it out of the woods especially if you're by yourself. maybe next time you could ask Hal to tell some stories about the retrieval and if there's methods to making it a little easier. Thanks for your channel!

Hal's childhood and mine were so alike . I was raised on a dairy farm and was in the fields and woods everyday, the only time I would come back to the farm was for chores or more BB'S for my gun. Then of course graduated to big weapons to carry 😂

Pretty sure my aunts and uncles went to school with Hal. Small world.
