February 2010 Issue

What an exciting issue of The Maine Sportsman we have with the February edition!

First, there is an actual application for the Maine Moose Lottery found on Page 3. This is the official form, and when you buy your copy you can fill it out and send it right in to the Fish and Wildlife.  You don’t want to miss your chance to take part in the most successful big game hunt anywhere in North America.

Second, we’ve got photos of the top 10 Biggest Bucks shot in Maine during the 2009 season.  It is certain the deer herd was down last year, but some truly giant bucks were still taken by hunters who were in the right place at the right time.

Third, this issue contains our annual boating section and kicks off with an article that will help you decide what the best boat is for you, depending on your particular boating interests.

We’ve got the answer to the deer problem. George Smith lays out an action plan that must happen if Maine is ever going to restore deer to Northern Maine.

Add to that all the usual fabulous columns contributed by our outstanding crew of writers. We figure it will take you about eight hours to read all the articles in this issues, and what could be better when the weather outside turns nasty!
