Stickflingers bear hunts pics
« on: March 31, 2018, 07:46:10 PM »
Since there are so many missing pics on so many threads, thanks to photobucket, let's put some up here. I'm slated to be there the first week of June for my first bear hunt. I've read a lot of threads, but without pics of the place, people, and bears, they don't have the same effect.

After three exciting days of watching bears come and go on different stands, I shoot bear number 23 who followed a sow to the bait site!

wow great photos Mike... thanks for sharing them... fun to see. Those really big bear are something else. I looked at so many photos before I went but it was hard for me to really appreciate their mass until I was kneeling in the leaves beside BowMikes bear.
I felt like I learned so much and I'm looking forward to another hunt.
I even saw my first moose there :)

Great pictures guys!  Just what I needed to get me going.  I will be up at Ryan's again May 27 for my fourth trip.  It is a great place.  Now I have to figure out the new picture process on TG.

Dave,
I am very jealous of guys going back up to Ryan’s place.  Wish I could but not going to happen for awhile.

Re: pictures,  I reduced the size of photo my Samsung takes and that solved the problem for me.  Just follow Tony’s four steps. Much easier than before.
