Just returned home from a 10 day Ontario hunt. Had a great time. Beautiful country, perfect weather, and alot of deer. Passed up more bucks in 10 days then I have in the last five years combined. First day I passed a 145 class 4x4, 12:30 pm and at 8 yards! Just couldn't pull the trigger that soon. About the 7th morning I had a monster at 50 yards. I'd just gotten to my popup blind and stepped inside, opened the fron window and there he stood. Problem was that the warm air inside the blind had fogged up my scope. I wiped it off and could see the deer but no cross-hairs. Probably could have guessed where they were and still killed the deer, but I'm not "guessing" type of hunter. Estimated this deer in the 170 6x6 range. Figured he'd come back as he wasn't spooked. Ended up passing 6 deer between 140 and 145. Finally on the last day I lowered the boom on this deer. About 142 9 point. Trail cam pic of him from the night before he took a ride in the pickup. Pretty exciting hunt. I really enjoyed the solitude and the whispering of the wind thru the spruce. Can't wait for next year.

Nice buck Dan, gotta love the big woods hunting!!! Way to go. Why no trips to hunt them up here?
 
Congrats,nice buck!Must of been really nice to see alot of quality bucks in such a short time.
 
It was nice seeing all the bucks that I did. Problem was there were only a few does. I could identify 4 diferent ones that I seen regularly, camera showed only these same 4. Don't know why all these bucks were in this area, but it was exciting.., never a dull moment. Kaare, I am checking into a hunt in your area. Money has always ben tight, but I've been saving for awhile and its just about time. Need to narrow down the Outfitters. The guy I'd like to hunt with is out of the question because of 100% return hunters. Oh well. This Ontario hunt cost me around 500.00 to do. That included a couple trips for scouting. Now I'm on my way to northern Minnesota to chase another big woods buck. I've been doctoring a mock scrape for about a month so I'm pretty excited. Camera will tell me everything I hope. I'll check in when I get back.
