One less fawn killer in the woods!

Since you have to turn that collar in to the state, take photo and have it decopaged on a plaque that you can with the bear rug on the wall.

Nice job.

nice to see a bear down.  congradulations.  never seen a bear collared before.  i have seen several elk and a goat with a collar.  i hope to get out thursday and saturday sunday mornings.   would be interesting if the wildlife folks would give you any history on this bear.

 :tup:, Way to get it done D-Rock, Bow or Rifle??
Now the pressure is on H2o and me..
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

Just got done skinning.   Shot at 6pm and just finish skinning at 11:30.  I'm ready for a shower, quick bite to eat then a nap.

My bears a little blood shot from his fall out of the tree.   The fall had to be an easy 45 feet probably more.

Looks like a good hide.  Congrats.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.
You are never to old to learn something stupid.
