For the first time ever, these 3 record book Maine bucks will be displayed at a public hunting show, at Huntstock Friday and Saturday only at the Huntstock Merch booth inside the main barn. These are 3 of the world's biggest deer, let alone Maine's! The Ramsey Buck has the World's Largest 8pt frame (when scored as an 8pt it scores an impressive 202 inches). The Hill Gould Buck is the longest standing state record in North America lasting 115 years and sports the highest mass measurements of any whitetail in the world, and the Silver Ridge Buck is one of the widest bucks ever taken in North America at 36 inches outside spread. Don't miss the opportunity to see all 3 of these beautiful specimens ONLY at Huntstock!
John Eberhart is a self-taught hunter who attributes his success on the very fact that he wasn’t mentored by relatives or friends on old school hunting methods. He learned through trial and error and due to his serious nature, desire to succeed and attention to detail, through the years he’s developed tactics and strategies that have equated to consistent success on mature bucks in heavily pressured areas. He'll be doing a daily 1 hour seminar.
Dan Infalt known as The Hunting Beast is a hard-working, never-quit big buck killer known for going deeper than most, hunting harder, and never shying away from nasty swamps or wetlands. Anything that keeps a normal hunter away can't keep him out. He'll be doing a daily 1 hour Q&A session.
Barry Wensel and his brother Gene Wensel are known as Brothers of the Bow. A legend in many respects Barry consistently kills giant bucks using his recurve bow and traditional equipment, but he is known for his great sense of humor, excellent seminars, and of course his hunting prowess. He believes woodsman-ship and common sense. He'll be doing a daily 1 hour seminar.
For the Tracking & Big Woods Hunting type, we will have the usual slate of legendary trackers & still-hunters including Lanny Benoit, Hal Blood, Rick Labbe, Rodney Elmer, Connecticut Carl and more. We'll also have some suburban bowhunters, turkey seminars, dog training seminars, optics seminars, fitness seminars, and more!
Join us for 3 unforgettable days of celebrating our hunting culture with likeminded individuals in an atmosphere that "feels just like a giant deer camp". Our family friendly event has plenty of activities for kids like inflatable archery, smores stations & bounce houses, non-stop seminars, immersive demos like field dressing a real deer, 3D Archery, great food and drink and 80+ exhibitors! After we draw thousands of dollars of giveaways we bring in live music and party the night away from 8pm to 10:30pm. You don't want to miss this great family event!
