Hey Yohon,

Dang those are some tight growth rings in that selfbow Bear. :eek: Is that bow backed?

JasonV, Im supprised the feeder is still standing if a bear got to it.

JasonV · « **Reply #403 on:** September 27, 2005, 09:39:00 AM »

Me too - he buckled one of the legs slightly, but all-in-all not as much damage as it could have been.
The bears have torn up several feeders - Chris Horseman's got the same type feeder and the bear buckled all 3 legs completely and ripped the mechanism off completely....
Guess that's what we get for hunting pigs in a place called "Bear Bay"......

Curt,

No, its not backed. It's 53 @ 28 and 59" ntn. :eek:

She lifted one little splinter at first but I doctored it up and she's been fine ever since.

Did I mention she's also faster than selfbows are supposed to be?

I'm really not bragging. Beginners luck maybe? Couldnt have done it without a lot help from above and some excellent mentors!

Cool pics. Did that turkey walk with a limp? Looks like the size of that leg would make it hard for him to fly.

Saturday was actually my secong time out in Conn..But was the official beginning of the season for my because the adrenalin flowed!!!
At day break a turkey started gobbling about 100yds away at every crow that made a sound.Ended up calling 2 gobblers with some voice calling.They were hanging around,and got real nervous all of a sudden.I knew something was around and soon saw a beautiful reddish blonde colored coyote sneaking in on the gobblers.No dice!!! Then he hit where I walked in and turned inside out...
About 8:00 2 does showed up about 80yds away.I tried everything I could think of to get one close.I wanted to get a jump on filling the freezer.I was shaking like I had never done this before!!!!! They eventually wandered off leaving my shaking like a leaf,and LOVING IT!!!!!!

Packin' up....

When that feeling ceases to exist, I'll quit huntin em. To me, for at least a few seconds...it feels like the first time, everytime.

Amen to that, Joe!

My Stepdaughter once asked if I even got Buckfever anymore. I said, "any more"?

"Any more," and Id have to be hospitalized. It is the one feeling that absolutely drives me. Please, please, let one walk in front of me so I can shake like GURU!

While those deer were there...I couldn't help but laugh at myself at how much I was shaking!!!

GOOD STUFF!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is the singing of the body electric and it is the most alive a man can be. It happens when hunting,in combat,in meeeting the woman that you KNOW will be the mother of your children and when each and everyone of those children is born. Because the hunting and combat scenarios are the most urgent they are more keenly felt. The others more fondly remembered. My that was awfully serious for 24:15 in the morning. I guess the philosopher in me is awake and maybe a touch of the poet. God Bless and Good Hunting, Curtiss

Thought a picture or two of Alaska might wet your apetite just a bit :D

This is of our bows at a Golden North shoot before season.

A perfect morning after the fog raised.

Of course the cow moose who busted me at about a million yards and took the bull with her...... obviously

Great Pics Scott! I've got a hankering to smoke a brisket, maybe we Northpoleans should get together to celebrate our successes this season. Aye?
