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 KZfaq 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.

Great to see you keeping the Living Legends in the loop, that series was awesome. Big thanks for what you're doing. I'm mainly a still hunter, hunting very similar terrain to Hal, and that bit on 90/10, travel corridors, and relation to doe pockets is bang on. My point being, you can adapt your still hunting skills to be effective in big timber if you want to, but you need a sound strategy to keep you in that 10% all day, and Hal basically told you most of what you need to know.

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 !!!

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 😂

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!

Not claiming I'm on Mr Blood's level, but I've dragged a fair amount 200lb deer several miles, usually solo. I've never bothered with a rope, unless the head is lifted the antlers catch on everything, so I just drag 'em by the antlers. The big thing, is I try to get them out to any type of trail, then use a utility sled to move them as much as possible. For moose and elk I keep a chainsaw in the truck and clear out a bit of a sled trail to the kill if possible.
