1 for me. Seen lots of them, just don't look to hard for them. I've seen probably over 50 over here in 12 years within 15 miles of my house.
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

I'd like to add this to mine....both that I have shot at have been killed and recovered. That is something I'm more proud of than the fact that I've killed a couple.

9 for me.  All spot and stalk.

Here's video of my most recent: http://hunting-washington.com/smf/index.php/topic,130123.0.html

Hoping #10 is my first with a bow!

Just the one in my pic
We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.

well i know it has been a few more than 5 thats for sure, the problem with killin bears is there is only so much you can do with bear hides and it gets real expensive, so i havent hunted bear in years, i really do miss baiting though, especially watch cubs keep mama bear on her toes, it was always a hell of a show  :chuckle:
my grandpa always said "if it aint broke dont fix it"

7 for me and hopefully number 8 by end of the weekend. Have a few spotted that I don't think will be disturbed by others so that is good.

Been on four successful hunts, but none in Washington yet.
Hunting- 99% waiting walking listening and looking, 1% stalking and shooting.  Just do it!
