None for me... Yet, I'm going after work today and I can't wait. My hunting partner and I have been putting in a lot of scouting time so hopefully the work pays off.

It is hard to follow one great vision in a world of darkness and of many changing shadows. Among these shadows men get lost.

I've notched 11 bear tags.  I honestly don't even get that excited with bears.  I have more fun watching them.

2 for me.  One with a rifle and another with my bow.  Both were shot at about 15 yards.

11 so far for me. 1 in SE Alaska, 1 in Idaho, 2 in Oregon and the rest in WA. Called in 4 of them, shot 3 of them with my 45 Colt revolver. 7 taken in the spring. Love bear hunting.

Only killed 3.  All well over 300# Don't have anymore space on the wall or desire to ever kill another, unless that elusive 130# true blonde appears, then I will finally get my rug.  I have just as much fun videoing 40-50 each year during the season.

-That was way cool how that bear was perched up on that rock! Sometimes the incounters are just as fun as notching the tag! Especially when there at the bottom of a canyon!  :chuckle:
