a call will not work on bears ..look for a blueberry patch ,rasberry and wild apple trees .also look for scat ,and a tree with claw marks they love to show other bears how tall they are .also a rubbing tree ,they like to rub they're back ..when the moment comes to shot aim for the shoulder that will nail them .don't go for a head shot too risky ..word of caution they get very NASTY when wounded . try to save the skull i had my taxidermist use the origional skull of the bear i harvested ..looks much better than the plastic one they sometimes use ..below is a mount of a female i shot ...
