finally got to go bear hunting
« on: October 01, 2009, 02:00:48 PM »
and it was worth the wait.  Not much of a story I just headed to the same spot I killed one last year and it was already in the apple trees waiting for me.  A quick shot and I watched it pile up after 60 yards up the hill.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Nice bear.

Sometimes you have to work for em.  Sometimes you don't.  And, sometimes you know where and when the apples start ripening on the trees.
