Check these out from last weekend:
Group of 8 deer, no legal shooters.

Two legal elk hanging out in a field that doesn't belong to me.

Yep...keep at it. Its not like you just scout a spot, go out one morning, shoot a bear, drag it out, bring it to my house so we can skin it, then tell me a little bit of info, i go shoot a bear, bring it home and skin it.

Bear hunting is easy. You just have to think like a giant animal that only likes to sleep, eat, screw, and eat. I have a strong understanding of brother bear. Deer/Elk are more complicated. :dunno:

cracks me up when people post pics of game on private land.. Im going to bet you never tried to figure out who owns it and ask them about hunting? I hunt 99.9% private land and all of it is because I am not afraid to knock on doors.... no hunting signs and all..... be respectful and charming and you might be surprised what happens.... :twocents:
Actually that's my dad's neighbor... But some bonehead fired a rifle out in the woods and scared em off before I could get the green-light to go after those two. I ended up hunting near there the next day but no sight of any animals.

I'm spending this weekend up in 437. Any tips?
My tip is to hunt a different GMU. 437 closed on the 8th according to the regs.

WHAT!? :bash: :bash: man I'm glad I posted that on here... Not like I would have actually seen a deer because that's been my luck. :tup:
Anyway, tomorrow is probably my last day of late season. (Boooo) so wish me luck.
