Bummer, time to find another location to hunt for the afternoon

thats crazy!

hahahaha, thats intense. I don't know what I'd even think if that happened to me.

Wow that is crazy! Lmao. Imagine trying to get in your stand at 5a.m haha

Funny. Send it to the stand manufacturer.

I once shot at a bear with my muzzleloader. The shot was deflected by a branch about 6 inches from the muzzle, but the startled bear ran right to the base of my tree and started climbing. He then decided to run up the mountain. After that, I noticed some claw marks on the tree's branches, so I knew this was a tree the bear had climbed before. Later in the season my padded seat on the stand was ripped off. Found it on a deer trail all chewed up.

Guess I shoulda stated this earier, this is not my set. This was sent to me from a co worker. THose look like Aspen or Alder trees so It's up north somewhere, but not in NC

That would not be a pretty sight trying to sneak in that stand at 5AM though. I would die, whether it be from jumping outa the tree or being mauled by the bear.

Side note: How many shine a light in your stand before you climb up????????????????????????. I do live in Bear country and never thought about it till now.

It would be really good if you were bear hunting.
You could say I got this bear from my stand litterly. :happy0157:
Crazzy.

i have actually seen many pics like this, not that uncommon at all. i think the bears either see..or smell the "hunter" in the stand...maybe they are imitating us, or just their curiosity. maybe its the padded seat...i wonder..if i left a roll of tp lol...

I think he is deer hunting the old fashion way,jumping on the prey! I wonder if he took into consideration his scent control before choosing an elevated positsion?
