They climb lickey split.From the pic's I've seen Tom sets stands so theres no need for a bear to climb. Just stand up and shake hands!!!

Kip, That sounds good! We need to get it cleaned out for your bear hide & meat

There was a package on the table when I got home with these beauties inside from Woody Blackwell.

How cool is that? :cool: :cool:

I'll get one hafted to a shaft tomorrow. Just have to decide - grey or brown? If anyone is interested in trying the other one you are welcome to it. We can haft it to your own shaft or I can bring one for you.

Nice looking heads Whip. Good luck on the hunt. Don't be half- drawing on those big bears. I heard about a guy doing that on a goat one day in TX. I got my goat head back yesterday. Looked pretty good, except his ears were about chewed off from fighting. KIll a big one. and please keep an eye on the bowdoc for me. He is doing I few bows for me and I don't want any harm to come his way.

Whip · « **Reply #367 on:** June 10, 2008, 12:01:00 AM »

I'll watch him for you John! And I'll try to keep your advice on the half draw thing in mind if the time comes

tippit · « **Reply #368 on:** June 10, 2008, 06:44:00 AM »

John, Whip is going to be sooo close to the bait that he'll have to be at 1/2 draw all the time just to let the Bear come in :eek: Sounds like you are doing well...Doc

Good luck to all of you. Can not wait to get the story and see some pics.

Still trying to clean up after the big shoot at my place this weekend...packed a little last night and hope to finish by tomorrow night. Won't be long now then Tippit, Whip, and I will be rolling North like three teenagers out fer a joyride. YEEEEEEHAAAAAA!

Chris, we'll take some good pics of Cutter getting bloody for you.

Chris, I think "Cutter" gets to ride shotgun to the Quest. Hope we can do her proud for you...Doc

Larry Surtees · « **Reply #372 on:** June 11, 2008, 12:36:00 AM »

Thanks guys for letting "Cutter" have a "front row seat" for Chris. Good luck and have fun! I, too, can't wait to hear the stories and see the pics.

Skyler, one great thing about "Cutter" is it is staying in the Family -- TGMM family!

SKYLER W · « **Reply #373 on:** June 11, 2008, 01:00:00 AM »

For everyone who don't know who "CUTTER" is....When Bear Quest II returns, we'll start a thread that tells the story of this knife and will follow it's Journey for the next Year. Here's a little teaser for yall...My Son and a good friend, Russell Phillips, built a knife for the St. Judes Auction. Chris Surtees bought the knife and he is Over-Seas serving our Country. He asked Skyler to take care of it and to use it and send him pics, until he returns. Skyler and I decided to send Cutter on a few extra Adventures for Chris....the first of which will be Bear Quest II......DON

This just keeps gettin better and better.

Guys, be careful in Molly's new ride, wouldn't want to get that 4runr trashed on it's maiden voyage

tippit · « **Reply #375 on:** June 11, 2008, 06:54:00 AM »

Chris, We'll keep Cutter on a "sharp" look out for Ya! Course She may have to split some duty with Beer Blade

Doc

Whip · « **Reply #376 on:** June 11, 2008, 07:59:00 AM »

Finished up my packing last night. Normally on a trip I bring a bunch of knives, but this time just packed my Tippit blade. Sounds like there will be plenty of backups!

Weather forecast for next week - highs between 72 - 80 and overnight lows in the mid 40's. T-Showers on a couple of days, but I think that will work just fine! :cool:

tippit · « **Reply #377 on:** June 11, 2008, 08:38:00 PM »

Whip, Got 2 Sunbears delivered to the clinic today!!! The first group got to try Barry's Paul Schafer Special bow...But second group need not feel left out. Charlie Lamb's Osage T/D Sunbear selfbow from Roger Norris and Whip's new Sunbear longbow will be in Camp II

I just might be bringing Tilly (my wirehaired Dachshund) up to help with the meager blood trails.

I'm officially on vacation now just finished up a hectic surgery week and I'm now looking forward to giving Bear Anatomy Lessons! Doc

Sounds like they have had a good hunt.
