That's great Don however, what happened to the land you took your buck on last season, that also sounded very promising as well it should, it produced?

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.

But I guess the neatest thing we saw was a great big black bear in the middle of a hay field.
Congrats on the 9000 acres there Mobow, good luck with it and I hope you do well.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.
