Have no fear buddy.....I'll be hunting that this year as well. And that spot should be KILLER. It's got bean planted, and around here they were planted pretty late. I think they'll still be green come season, and it just so happens I took opening day off. ;) Now if I can just get the wind I need.....we'll see what happens. No guarantee of a replay by any means, but it's gonna be an awfully exciting year.

9,000 acres????? Good golly miss Molly!

RE: 500 miles, a black bear, and into Iowa I was...
 

What the hell is a bear doing way down there? Thats gotta be the 1st!

Congrats on the 9000 acres there Mobow, good luck with it and I hope you do well.:D

Actually, the missouri department of conservation has recently estimated missouri's black bear population to be around 500. They just aren't sighted very often, but I've heard about them being pretty close to where I am.

Cool, I didn't realize that. Maybe in time they will have a bear season and you can start bear hunting too. Its allot of fun!

Is this all private land mobow that you gained access to?

RE: 500 miles, a black bear, and into Iowa I was...
 

Yes, it's all private. And it's not all one tract, it's made up of about.....12 different farms. There's no way we'll hunt them all this year, but we have access to any of them.

That is sweet!! Good luck to ya!!

Hey PT, don't they speak American in NY?

Don got it, here I'll break it down for ya. [8D]

Now, this is saying how wonderful it is for Don (mobow) BUT,

This statement here was asking what happened to the land he tagged that wonderful buck on last year (season) See PT, mobow just acquired this land last season I believe.

Now this is where it gets difficult, [8D] I was saying here that I remember his description from last year and it sounded very promising.


Okay, I'll slow down here. You see, it should sound promising as he took a buck off it last year, you see it produced.

Man PT, you might be purtier but man your definately slower. [8D] ;) Oh, and older, that might have something to do with it. :D

RE: 500 miles, a black bear, and into Iowa I was...
 

Don't worry, Don.

You always have your van to keep you grounded.

:D

(sorry[8D])
