RE: your favorite bear hunt?
HAVE HUNTED BLACK BEARS ALOT WITH BOTH BAIT AND SPOT AND STALK. SOME AREAS BAITING IS NOT NEEDED BUT OTHER AREAS IT TOUGH BECAUSE OF TERRAIN. I HAVE PUT ALOT OF TIME AND EFFORT INTO BAITING AND NOT GET A BEAR. IT IS ALOT MORE WORK THAN ALOT OF PEOPLE THINK IT IS. WITH A BOW I GIVES ALOT MORE TIME TO JUDGE A DECENT BEAR AND LESSEN THE CHANCE OF SHOOTING A SOW OR A BEAR THAT IS RUBBED. I HAVE HUNTED GRIZZLY BY SPOT AND STALK ...LOTS OF FUN, TWO PARTNERS HAVE CONNECTED WHILE I HUNTED WITH THEM BUT I HAVE NOT BEEN SUCCESSFUL YET.
