Going over video footage today (over 38GB... hours of footage) there's so much build-up about getting that guy. Just watching it is giving me the itch.

Thanks HarryT!


Just finished cutting, trimming and vacuum packing. He made around 11 large vacuum bags (maybe 50-60lbs total after trimming) ... not a heck of a lot, the meat smells and feels so good. I'd bet (if someone paid me a significant amount of money lol) that I could just eat all that raw and it will be fine. It's going to be delicious.

I'll go out at least one more weekend this season. Promise!!

Guess I should order the tag now.

^^^^^cambodia tire should have the tags over the counter....

I called up the Langley one just before April and they told me they aren't going to be selling tags anymore.

Army & Navy said they planned to but no ETA, though they might have them now. Will try them tomorrow and failing that I'll order one.

That's the attitude Caddisguy...

You can not have a bang flop every time..

Bears take a beating I have had them run a couple hundred yards with a good hit..

Now go shoot that Devil bear.!!!!

I think you where just feeling a little remorse that is normal many times after a harvest I say to my self never again and feel guilty.

but when I cook up that steak I am like LETS GO GET ONE!

I agree strongly. So far hunting bear is the only animal that makes me feel remorseful but then I remember I utilize the entire thing from pelt to fat to meat and claws! Nothing goes to waste and it sustains me for a season, so all's fair !
