Glad to hear from all. I got spanked still trying for a bear, how ever, wish me luck. I am a full on amatuer at bear hunting, I saw some and found out they can haul butt ,saw very large turds , been trying to use a rabbit distress call but I gotta say I am at loss. saw a big one come up outta a trail last year, thought I jumped a buck but to my suprise this bear come across the trail stops and looks at me, had no tag so I just hooted and waved my arms he took off hootin down the trail my son said I sounded like a monkey well anyhow got till dec 31
