Man I dont feel inferior or any such thing because I dont see much success out of being proud of walking 72 miles!!

I just didnt think one could do much hunting when they were punching out 12 miles through mountainous terrain everyday. KInd seems like a hiking trip more than a hunting trip when you ask me......

But thats cool if you did it and I think that the foot put those bears where they are........the foot raises bears like we raise cattle. So your lucky you didnt see big foot in those meadows tending his bear

I have seen 6 bears in one day but one group was a sow with 4 cubs :chuckle:


Didnt see any shooter bucks?

When you get older Moss you'll understand...   :rolleyes:  :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

You young bucks done pissing on each others stumps yet.  :chuckle:

I'm not sure I'd call it a successful hunt since I didn't see any big ones being hauled out on packs, so ones technique might be slightly flawed.  I'm quite certain that amount of bears can be seen and that many miles can be hiked.  You might want to stop and smell the wildflowers though next time and quit walking by those big ones sitting there watching YOU instead of vice versa.  ;)

it's 3 6 miles in the morning and 3 6 in the evening for 6 days.
thats like 1-1.5 2 hours of walking at my pace on each end of the day. plenty of time for hunting.

I think its actually 6 miles in the morn and 6 in the evening but still doable.

And personally 48 bears isnt crazy. If your in the right spot and the right time of year in the high country, seeing 5-6 bears every morning and evening is that out of whack. But thats just me....and my  :twocents:

You're just nervous, because with all those Chrysler and GMC dealers going TU, look at all the business you are going to get.

Do I care if you think it was a successful hunt? No I don't. I don't base success on whether or not I kill something. Lol about the big ones comment also. Not only do you have to kill but it has to be big also? I have seen a lot of dinks that you have killed so are you saying that those aren't successful hunts?

Jackelope it seems to me that other than your math skills you are smart enough. You at least know how to hike and hunt in the same day without getting confused if your hiking or hunting. LOL

We hike a lot in the dark and in the middle of the day when the animals are less active.

boneaddict, why make the comment about the pissing contest and then keep it going by saying someone didn't have a successfull hunt?
We had a hell of a time just watching all those bears. FYI Branden passed on a few bucks that a lot of guys would shoot in a heart beat.


Also guys Branden and Rob (the other guy with a bow on our trip) both killed bears the year before so they didn't need to shoot one on this trip.

Touche.  No I saw a buck while I was scouting and I decided it was that buck or nothing. Couldn't find him during the season.

No that sort of mileage is not impressive. I have a 14 year old cousin that hiked 34 miles in a day. To me that is way more impressive.

Im sorry maybe I should change the ask me to a in my opinion? does that work for you? no? yes? maybe?
Imho works for me.

I also enjoy how you change my qoute in yours!!  :chuckle:

I thought it was pretty funny. lol
