Absolutely.
And there are a few folks who do on a regular basis harvest big bucks.
Part of that is definitely determination, hard work but also finding an area that many folks just haven't considered and also, have the time
and are relatively close to the area to begin with.
Not everyone has that opportunity even if they have the other factors needed.

Those that harvest big bucks of the road, well that is "Luck".
Also another factor needed.
Lots of folks hunt hard and see bucks, but never see a 200+......ever.

Only have to look at the MD record book of BC and read stories to see how some harvest them just by driving....lots.
Others I know and they had property no one else could hunt and the seasons went really late with tons of snow, so they harvested
really big bucks, both MD and WT.
Look at the ones from Lumby....that was a family affair back in those days.
I know a relative from that group and he has one in the books as well as the others in the family tree.
