Big Game Hunting > Bear Hunting
Two nights in a row I let bears walk.
7mmfan:
I think for me when I see a bear (not that I've seen a bunch) especially a smallish one, I feel kind of bad at the thought of shooting it. They remind me a lot of black labs. They also have so much personality. That being said, I've yet to see a legal game animal and think twice about shooting it. Its usually afterwards that I feel some regret. That's usually short lived as well.
My only consideration currently is that its so flipping hot out and having to deal with a bear in this heat can be a pain.
I'm planning on going out after work today, up in that general area. If you want someone to eliminate the temptation for you, just let me know, my 7mm-08 is ready to bark.
dune:
Me too I'm going in about 5 miles hope if I get one the meat isn't cooked by the time I get it out
jason stevens:
Hey buddy you can take me and and my kid out and put us on her first. Weve been getting close but no clear shots .
Threewolves:
Shoot it then buy another bear tag. It is that easy. My wife wants any bear to have the hams smoked, then she says I can hold out for a big one.
Ripper:
It's a long season, you'll have more chances. Bears are so cool to watch, I'd have no problem passing on one. I've passed on a few before, I just wish I could get better pictures of them. I don't want the bulk and weight of a camera in my pack.
