Congrats on the yotes fsh! I've killed a few, but none with a bow. Never had one close enough with the bow. I've also never seen them come in as a pack, only solo's. That is cool, good shooting!

Ed, good luck on your hunt...its raining pretty good here where I am in VA now, gonna be an ugly day for sure. Buckingham is a few hours south of me, I am up in the very top county - Frederick, right near WV.

Speaking of bears, I talked to my neighbor last night...he shot a bear two saturdays ago with a xbow down through the shoulders - and lost it. He said it was the only shot he had...so he had to take it. grrr
Said it was 300+. I told him you HAVE to make sure you take a GOOD shot on any animal with a bow, qtring away or broadside. He admitted he was so excited and thought the bear was gonna leave, so he just shot. First year out with a bow of any type. I was wondering what size bear was around, there were two piles of dung within 10yds of my opening day stand. He did say he has 4 different ones on his game camera, and one was real big. I guess I'll keep my eyes out for buzzards.

Good luck guys

Mike
