That sounds like a fun bear hunt.  I'm interested in what's on the trail camera film.....

[Bard1]

heh.  turns out that the only thing on the trail cam was ferns blowing in the wind. I am going to run up there this weekend and put a camera back up, and hopefully aim it a little better. ;-)

Hello everybody,

  I have been hunting for a few days looking for roedeer in Spain, also for some wildboar. I saw a few roedeer but nothing big enough. Just one buck, but it was in the first ligth of the morning, and he saw me first. Couldnt do anything, he stoped at 45 yards, but I dont shoot at those distances..
   

 I tried a decoy made by myself, and it work! to deer came at 40 yards of my treestand. But it was a doe and spike.   http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h267/alimoche/IMG_0927.jpg  


  The last day was the day! It was a beatiful forest, very good grass inside, and a lot of hogs and roe deer in it. Ten minutes later, I saw four hogs 100 yards away from me, I didnt doubt a second, and started my stalk. I was getting very closed while there where feeding calmly. I was about 20 yards away!, waiting for one of them to show me his ribs, because he was behind some brushes. When suddenly another hog rised his nose up and..bufff!! Alll of them went running..I was so excited..!!ahahha

  I continued walking through the woods, and wait a moment, what is that... a hog! There was another one feedin just at fifty yards from me. He was at 20 yards from the road now and was heading it, so I hurried up to try to win some yards. Now my heart was going to jump from my chest. He was behind a tree, 20 yards, I started thinking and triying to concentrate on the shot,and there he came, he step on the road, I picked a spot (maybe the hole boar, I dont know!hahaha), I draw and..zasss!!! between the legs!!!hahahahhah!! he started running and stopped at 35 yards to look back and think in what have just happen... I picked another arrow as  fast as i could, draw and release! Miss!!!hahaha I dont know here that arrow went, only remind the sound of the arrow hitting the rocks!

He as fast as he could! I went to find the arrow, and there was him again!!!! at 400 yards inside the forest eating calmly. I started the stalk, and when I was at 50 yards of the boar a roedeer appear(a doe), it was going to be tuff!, because they are really clever! and you know, 4 ears are better than two! So I continued very slowly and finally reach a tree that was only at 20 yards from the boar. Wait 10 seconds behind it to think in all the things to do a perfect shot.  All ready... I went out of the tree, and he was there! 20 yards broadside, I now really concentrate on the shot, until the boar rise his head and looked at me, it was so beatifull that i dont know what i did, I maybe anchor on my chest or something, but i miss it by far!!haahha

I was behind the right tree and the boar was just beside the small tree..
   

After the three misses..

I had seen this critter here before but never had a camera. Today I had one but the battery was all but dead. I turned it on and took one picture and the rechargable battery died.

not a great photo but it gives you an idea of what a badger looks like.

 

[alimoche]

beatifull animal, and the photo is excellent!!!

Thanks everybody, hoping to can tell you the end of the story one of this days!hahaha

Take care,
Pedro

Pretty Badger. She looks nice and clean like she doesn't stink at all. Yea right! There just isn't anything that stinks worse than a boar badger!

Sometime I decide to hunt ol' man style and spend the evening hunt relaxing and catching up on my education.

 


Other times I like to sneak around and see what I can find. This day I found where a big Sow and her newly born offspring had been quelling the heat with a dunk in the mud.

   

[Littlefeather]

The drought here has gotten so bad that the animals that do find water to drink sometime get stuck in the mud and die before their thirst is quenched. It's gotten so bad that the water isn't drinkable do to the unspeakables. You can see the remnants of this pig which fell victim to the mud and was later pulled out by hungry coyotes. The saga of life continues. Rain is falling now as I type. A much needed relief after 9 months without. CK

Here's a shot from the past. One evening bunny hunting, me and Terry. CK
