[ccm75]

Wow! I wish had time to bow hunt again. Maybe when the kids are older.
This guy did it right and killed a massive buck!

Thats a beauty.

Holy buckets. What a perfect deer and a great story. Congratulations Mr. Daigle!

 

[BerkshireHunter]

That's a great buck.

Management, nutrition and genetics are making Massachusetts one of the best places in the country to bow hunt giant whitetails.

^All I have to say about that is, "Meh."

 

[Bumpfire1478]

Awesome buck and well deserved!!!

 

[DavidC77]

Very nice...

Congrats to him...

Nice deer. I know a couple up in Rutland, and I wonder if this was "the one".

Daigle described himself as “anal” about being as scent-free as possible, bathing prior to every hunt with scent-free soap and covering his body with carbon fiber, scent-absorbing clothing.

(You're doing it wrong?)

(I know my father and his buddies would live in a cabin for 2 weeks, no shower, cigarettes, coffee, alcohol. They always brought home venison. My neighbor would have deer walk up to him while weed whacking with a 2 stroke, so, I don't buy the scent thing.)

They are "conditioned" by environment.

Yeah. Thats a load of shit. The midwest is where its at. Mass does not have enough agriculture and a month long of doe and muzzleloader seasons of too many doe permits and jackasses with the brown is down mentality.

 

[dannyac]

now thats a buck

 

[MassMark]

I heard tale of a 24-point buck taken in Great Barrington and that it's being taken to CT for official measurement... Stay tuned...

No shit there... Was looking at the harvest report and could not help but notice the abundance of does well under 70lbs taken - just at the Lee checking station. One doe - 52lbs...

That name (Daigle) sounds very familiar as I'm from that town, grew up there.
A lot of hunters there as there is a ton of woods.

 

[CRSIII]

I know that guy.
Way to go Danny!

Aw, I've hunted in Egremont 2 days. Might go again tomorrow since I have a doe permit for there...

Mark Blazis, writer for the T&G hunting column, hunts the area at the end of my street. I've met him a couple times now. Talking to him this morning, he said that a muzzleloader hunter out in Lenox, MA, shot one even BIGGER than the Rutland archery deer. I think he said twenty-one points (?).

mmmmmm, 52 pounds, that's a roaster.

 

[StevieP]

mmmmmm, 52 pounds, that's a roaster.

More like a fryer, or a Cornish Game Doe.

 

[45collector]

He should have just slightly wounded it and then rode it home. Holy crap that's a big one.

 

[Paper City Firearms]

A friend of a friend might have shot the new Maine record buck. The rack was 22 points and he said it measured over 240.
Yeah I know it's worthless without pics.
Taken above rangeley

Wow--that's a beaut. Shows the results of knowing what you are doing.
