Ground blind in bear country
Last week I was scouting my new place to hunt which is a bunch of woods behind a large soybean field. I have to park on the field side, so I have to walk across the soybean field. Well I saw a path that crosses the field which the wildlife uses to travel. Once I reached the wood line I saw some beautiful scrapes and rubs, I was so pumped up. Well anyway, as I was walking down the edge of field a freaking black bear and myself scared the crap out of each other. My question is, do you think it will be safe to hunt out of a ground blind? I have climber set up, but I would also like to use my new blind if it is safe. Opinions please.
