One more week!  Who is ready for the August grind? Any special plans?

I'm pumped, black bear is my favorite animal to hunt. I will be on vacation hunting bear from August 1st-11th up in The N.E. corner looking for bear #5.

Trying to decide what weapons to pack.  Really want to bring the ole Win. 32 special out for a run.  Nostalgia kicking in.

I will be headed north a bit to 113 on Friday for a 4 day weekend. Hoping to get my first bear. The wife and I hunted them quite a bit last summer but never did see one. So hopefully this year is the year!

When is bear season?

Just kidding. Counting the days.

I'm taking a Hawken 54. West side.

Fellow west side bear hunter.  I like it and with the Muzzy at that.  Im gonna hunt with the 7mm Mag for at least the first bear.  I think we are hiking in and spending the weekend.  I was in this weekend checking cams and ended up way too close for comfort to a bear (estimated 7 feet).
A bad day out hunting is better than a good day at work!
