A valley can make or break a buck’s future. Ours is long, narrow, and guarded by marsh and pasture—difficult to access, perfect for letting deer get old. That’s where Logan’s story unfolds: years of shared neighbor intel, a “let it grow” culture, and a chessboard of food plots, pinch points, and big old trees that set the stage for one of the largest New Brunswick giants we’ve ever laid eyes on.
We walk through the real work behind a “once-in-a-lifetime” tag. Logan breaks down how he shifted from casual sits to intentional strategy—mapping doe movement, timing hunts around cold fronts, and treating trail cameras as tools instead of truth. You’ll hear about the summer sightings across tall marsh grass, late-January shed clues a kilometer apart, and the frustration of slow seasons that still hide daylight activity just out of frame. When the weather flipped and a rare northeast wind finally aligned, small choices mattered most: an early walk-in to trim lanes, a missing saw, and the discipline to move slow on crunchy frost.
Then everything happened fast. Antlers raked cedars. A tiny window opened through two branches. The shot broke. Twenty yards later, the woods went still. We cover the recovery, the friends sprinting in from work, and the green score that puts this mainframe twelve near the 190 mark gross and around 180 net typical. More important than numbers are the takeaways: how to hunt a pressured corridor, why access outranks almost everything, and how consistent doe habitat pays off when the rut locks down.
If you care about whitetail strategy—access, wind, fronts, cameras, food plots, and community management—this story will hit home and sharpen your plan for the next cold morning.
