Sweet!
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Sweet Fred! Congrats to your buddy.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

way to go!  Should really start to get interesting in the next few weeks.
The lazy do not roast any game, but the diligent feed on the riches of the hunt.

Thanks everyone.  I have 2 more nice bears slamming 2 different baits, but they have been well after dark so far.
