Was wondering how everyone's hunting is going this year. Wishing everyone luck on filling those tags, and the freezer. As for me, I was very fortunate to get a 300 pound cinnamon sow this fall. I hunted all spring for a bear. I saw a sow and 3 cubs, a 2 yr old blonde, and that was about it, so I changed my location for the fall hunt and after 3 days after setting up the bait, saw a few bears on the trail cam. It wasn't until Oct 20th that all the effort paid off.
I'm so thrilled, I've never hunted bears before. Seeing one that close was amazing. I was 5 yards from it. Very exciting.
Barrels for bait- $20
Bear Bomb, and scent sticks- $30
Bear tag-$15.49
Pure Adrenaline Rush- PRICELESS!

Congrats on your bear!, I am going to fill my tags next week moose, elk, mule deer, and whitetail. I will be happy with a moose and elk in the freezer and on the wall for the winter!!:d

Here's a buck i shot in WMU 504 on November 2nd. I was aiming at a doe at about 200 yards and she took off into the bush and this guy basicly jumped out about 150 yards right in front of me. My dad and i went back in the same spot on the 5th and got another little buck hanging out with 3 mule deer. One muley buck and a doe with a fawn.
