Shhhh...... with the price of gas I can use all the free electronics I can get. A tracking device and game cam are worth more to me then a bear any day.

Looks like a possibility that Friday AM will be post-frontal. Might be ideal...

Of course, I'll probably be up to my elbows in Bulldog Puppies by then, and won't be able to get out!

Good luck fellers!

I think I will give it about two more weeks and than shoot one before I have to go back and start teaching. Let the berries get ripe. I've been seeing a 300+ lb Cinnamon that I wont wait three weeks to pull the trigger on tho.
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.
