Today's hunting trip
« on: August 10, 2014, 01:23:20 PM »
So I pull up to the gate and I suddenly feel the urge to drop logs. I grab my TP and my zip lock baggie, for the TP not the logs, and I walk in the wood line a bit. As I'm starting to squat I hear something running away. I stand and turn to see what it was. IT WAS A BEAR! My gun was still by me vehicle though.... :bdid:

I get to the berry patch I was going to hunt about 0630. I start calling shortly after that. About an hour after calling I hear something in the woods. My heart is pounding and all I'm thinking about is where I'm going to put the rug. Then I hear a man's voice. Then I hear his cell phone ring. All I could think of is "WHO IS YOUR PROVIDER AND HOW DO YOU HAVE SERVICE OUT HERE?!?!?!?!"

I ended up getting sick and throwing up and I started to head to the vehicle about 1130 and I see a very nice doe just walking across the road.

In the end it was a nice trip and I saw a lot of promising signs. I'm still looking for that first bear!

Maybe that is why my grandpa always said "keep you rifle within arms reach at all times" Even when nature calls!  :chuckle:   sorry you did not get a chance at your Bear

That was a freaky half day of hunting. Better luck next time.
I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I'm not!

I'm really hoping so. This is my first year ever to hunt bear and I'm VERY excited about it.
