Too hot for hunting.
I have had my best success on the hottest days. If someone really really wanted to kill a bear I would recommend hunting the hottest day of the week.
My season starts today after work. Missed the best day of the week yesterday when it was 100 lol.

We actually saw a bear yesterday at around 1300 in the heat of the day. I was amazed.

The last 2 hours of the day are the best regardless of the temps. If you kill a bear at that time you will be doing your work during the coolest part of the day (after dark).
I have killed a few morning bears but it’s not my favorite time to hunt. I always had a couple West facing slopes for the morning as they were the last to get the sun and the opposite in the evening as those slopes were the first to get the shade.
Now that I live in ID I do all of my bear hunting in the spring😂.

Filled tag #1 of 2024 with this little boar yesterday at 10:23am. 256 yard double-lung shot from my Browning X-Bolt Stalker Long Range 30-06 put him down. This is my 8th Black Bear harvested in my hunting career. Dropped off meat at butcher for Jalapeno and Pepperjack sticks. Time to get a 2nd tag and look for a GIANT. Good luck to everyone as always!
👍saving fawns, and calves.

Great job everyone!
Post by: Angry Perch on August 14, 2024, 07:22:31 AM
Thanks for the comments everyone. Long story short; we've been hunting this bear for 4 years. First started getting him on our trail cams in 2020 and named him Victor for the large distinctive V on his chest. Never seen him alive until last week when he popped out in this old clearcut right before dark. Didn't realize how big he was until he was gutted and we tried to move him. Like I said, I'll try to get the whole story up this week.
Little Pathfinder's growing up! But he looks too serious. I love to see that boy's electric smile with his success pics every year!

Cool bear! Love that white patch! Are you gonna do a mount? With a white patch like that, I'd hate to split it up the middle for a rug, and separate that pattern.Well, the problem is that his room is starting to look like the Grim Reaper of bears lives there. We had his first bear made into a rug because it was his first, and it had a beautiful white chest as well. Then last year he killed a big blonde boar and it looked like they were going to end the August season here, so I figured "probably the biggest one he'll kill. I guess I'll have a rug made." I killed a big boar two years ago that I had rugged. I called the taxidermist the day after he killed it and asked if it was too late to put a stop order on the blonde rug and switch it out for this guy, but he said it's already getting the felt sewed on.
So, as big and beautiful as it is, I'm just not going to rug a fourth bear, and a half mount is nearly 2K. Ill keep the hide in the freezer and sleep on it, but I think we'll just get it tanned and he can hang it off his door with his others...

The bears have not touched the red hucks in the areas I have been hunting. It could be because they prefer a different berry? Lots of cascara and black berries seem to be their targeted food source. I also noticed they never touch the mountain ash either on the wet side but get east and they eat them up??

Shot this fat sow on labor day. Shot her at 30' when she stood up out of the buckbrush. Shot her while she was standing on her hind feet. Lots of fat on her. (No cubs, dry sow, not producing milk). Got her hanging in the newly minted walk in cooler. Time to make breakfast sausage and lard.
One of the fattest bears I have killed was a sow between birthing years. They must really stock up to survive childbirth in winter. Bear was maybe 5.5’ but easily 300# with the 4” of fat.

That was my second bear ever in life. I'm thinking about getting a second bear tag just in case an opportunity presents its self.
That bear was shot with a .308 Accubond Trophy Grade and I was very glad to hit it right in the heart off hand at 70yds.
My 2023 bear was hit in the heart with a 300WM Accubond handload from 60yds. Both died in place. I'm not usually that good of a shot when it's go time. When aiming I had a quick thought back to Bearpaw posting about bears needing a solid vital hit to go down quick. Again, I'm very glad I hit him right where it needed to be.
I never heard such a death moan before and would have liked to record that moment.

Ended my bear season yesterday evening. Stuck this brute at 20 yards. My heart sunk a little when I stopped him and he turned towards me with his front leg back. Made for a tricky shot and less then ideal angle but 466 gr arrow with magnum slick trick punched through and exited right infront of the hind leg. My second biggest bear weighing 274# gutted. Roughly 320# whole weight. Extremely pleased with our bear oil stash after shooting skinny big bears for years.Nice! Looks like a fatty!

Nice bear dilley. Did your arrow hit any bones?
It did not touch bone. The shot looks more forward than it really was because its leg was back on the hit.

Outstanding. I love rendered bear fat (and ground bear, tbh).

2024 Bear. Rolled myself out of bed sick as a dog told myself I could be home sick in bed or up in the woods Hunting. Happy to spot this bear and connect with a clean shot at 200 yards drop and never moved again.
Umm can you plz explain your dirtbike situation going on there? Looks interesting
