Bear Hunting Spring 2008
Well we finished our spring bear hunt and it was another very successful season. Lots of bears, great guests and nobody got hurt.
The harvest consisted of a nice blonde, 3 cinnamons, and some big black bears. The largest this spring scored 20 3/16 and several 18 and 19's. The coats on all of them were perfect even the last week of the season.
Average sightings at the baist were 5-7 bears including cubs and almost every bait had a pair of cubs or more. Very good for the future of our area as most were color phase cubs also.
We had one big black bear (shown here)with a bald patch on his forehead, we called the Great Outdoors Bear.
It was all scarred up and hair was worn right down to the scalp. I can't imagine what happened to him for that to happen but it am guessing it was from fighting since there were fresh wounds and it was mating season.
Thats is all for now, there are more pics but i only will post a few at a time.
Hang 'em high!
