Bear Hunting 2012

I haven't had any luck yet either

 

Yeah, they don't let us take cubs here. On the upside, dressing that bear out probably took, what,10 minutes?

 

its not a cub... and in CA legal is a year old or 50 lbs. this more then doubled that regulation in both categories. DFG said it was about 2 years, and it weighed about 130.

edit: just noticed your from cali ha

 

Like I said, they don't let us shoot cubs here.

I was giving you shit. Calm down. Relax. It's a nice bear (seriously). Congratulations. And for that matter, I've never taken one with a bow, so you're one up on me in that department!

 

I paid >$200 for a tree farm pass in my area for this year. When I went to do some bear hunting, there were red signs everywhere saying the tree farm was closed to all activity due to fire danger and won't re-open until further notice

I guess the positive is that I need to be ready and waiting the first day it opens because grouse and bear have not yet been hunted out...

 

haha i know, i realized that after i looked at where you were from. im relaxed. im still go nuts i actually got my first one with a bow. been telling myself that for the last 3 years i wanted one with a bow first.

 

Fire danger? What area is it in?
