    Ticks - Blacktail in CA and PNW

    I’m in southern Oregon, and ticks are usually only an issue for us during spring bear season. By the fall seasons I don’t worry about them much. Treat your pants with permethrin at the beginning of the season and you will be fine.

    New to elk hunting in Oregon

    There are plenty of elk near you. Take a look at the regulations and get familiar with units and seasons. Odfw has harvest statistics on their website. Then I would look for access to timber land in those areas. Expected there to be lots of people.

    Bow or rifle? West side is very broad, September in the cascades is hot and dry, anything on the coast is going to be really wet.

    Norma Bondstrike

    My buck last year was the only thing that went far enough to track. A blind person could have found it, lots of blood. 300wsm 60ish yard shot

    Suppressor wait times

    It sounds like my experience is pretty normal when purchasing through silencer shop. I wasn’t aware it would be a month before I could certify

    So ... How far are you all pushing your bear hunt back.

    Last year I had already had multiple opportunities by now. I haven’t even seen fresh sign yet this year. Most of the area I hunt is still covered in snow. Hopefully it warms up a little soon

    I didn’t realize it took that long to make it to submitting your form 4. Good to know. I ordered my can from silencer shop on 3/5 and I’m still waiting to certify.

    Evening shots

    Evenings are when I see the most action both spring and fall. Last fall I shot my bear about 10 minutes before the end of shooting light. Bear went down hard so I grabbed my stuff and headed that way. It got up and tumbled/crawled down into the timber. Spent a couple hours looking for it in the...
