I did shot this within a few miles of the house and saw 3 bears, and a good bit of elk sign! So yeah maybe I can stick one more critter or two? Before the end of the year? Or atleast during the up coming elk season, and rest of the bear season here in long beach...

Post by: HEADSHOT on September 09, 2008, 10:34:11 PM: hell yeah does are easy you dont waist time, an arrow, or gas just get it done opening day! I had a cow standing 16 ft from me tonight! I was waiting for the bull to come out for 45min. At one point he charged in and stopped at 22 yds thought he was gonna run me over but the tree stopped him. Tonight was awsome had over 30 cows coming in and out! For 45min..... being I have to work and couldnt get time off we will see what tomorrow night brings? My buddy fell asleep and awoke to a bear that he thought was one of the other guys. You never heard a louder scream! We thought he was a gonner, but he made it out tonight.
