Great thread Coop.

Thanks Ryan - hoping we drop some bears because I'd like to cut a video together with some harvests on it exclusively for the Rok. Been a weird year for us, but we'll pull through and lay a few down.

Good luck Darin! Keep the pics coming.

I'll be flying up the next two weekends trying to fill my second tag so hopefully there will be some bears droppin in the next couple weeks with the rut kicking in!!

Good luck Craig! I had plans of using a 2nd tag this season, but now looks like there will be enough suspense trying to fill #1. Cool temps over the weekend may trigger better daytime activity. That factor coupled with the rut has my expectations high for our next outing.

Well, I had my chance for bear #2 this spring, shot a bit too far forward and ended up losing a great bear on Monday evening. Sick about it, but as all of us who hunt enough know... It's not the first time and unfortunately it likely will not be the last time. Live and learn, should have done this, could have done that but in the end it wasn't meant to be.

Just seeing him right below my stand, taking what I thought was a great shot at 7-8 yards and seeing bears up close made the hunt. Hopefully this feeling goes away soon.

Best of luck the next few weeks Darin!
