· Today Mike O’Neil joins us for an informative comparison of tracking techniques that these seasoned big woods trackers use to outsmart huge mature Northern Maine whitetail bucks. Mike grew up in northern Maine and at 65 years old has been chasing these bucks for decades. As Rick Labbe states, “He has a lot of stories to share.” Over time we have found that stories seem to help fellow hunters learn to figure out how to outsmart these wily old mature bucks. We hope you enjoy his stories as much as we did.
