During bear hunting I'll loose at least 5 to 10lbs In only a 7 to 9 day stretch. We really bust our ass's checking baits and hunting. We don't use 4 wheelers for anything, takes the hunt out of It for me. I always seem to find myself at the Chiropractor at the end of bear hunting usually every year from putting and taking down many hang on stands and from carrying 100lbs of bait In and out 15 times a day 1/8 mile Into a woods. Then If someone gets a bear, It's a long drag again on foot (bear drag harder then anything I've ever dragged). I love the work though, It's very rewarding and It's just plain and simple part of the hunt.
