Dpduckhunter13 Report post Posted October 1, 2020 Anyone getting prepped for the second round of fall bear hunts? I filled my tag this spring, but I’ll be heading up to help my wife and my buddy and his wife tag out. I’ve been fortunate enough to be a part of 3 bears so far this year, including my own. That number should be quite a bit higher, but we’ve had 23 misses on bears, all at moderate range and all from some sort of SOBPS (sudden onset bear Parkinson’s syndrome 🤣) Who’s got some 2020 dead bear pics? First bear of 2020 and Hanks first ever. Ancient sow that should age around the 20 year mark My 2020 bear and by far my biggest. A touch over 6’10” and the skull is just over 20” My clients boar from August right around the 6’ mark. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ohthatguy Report post Posted October 15, 2020 Sounds like a bunch of people need to hit the range instead of the woods. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZbowhntr Report post Posted October 15, 2020 I am heading up this weekend to do some elk scouting and taking the call. I would be happy with a bear or lion. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
