Welcome Matty! You are going to have an experience you won't forget just meeting bowdoc!     :biglaugh:    This is my fourth year in a row going with these guys and I wouldn't miss it! I'm in for first week too. I look forward to sharing a camp with you.

Matty- It'll be great to meet you; this is a hunt you'll never regret. Tom- I just started to have my tax return forwarded to you but figured you might have trouble cashing it,lol. For those who haven't been in Tom Phillip's camp, you are in for a great time. I started looking forward to this year about thirty seconds after we left camp.                                 Grant

heck no Shawn I burned those the last day.You won't have to worry about the human smell as Tom's stink baits will mask any human oder that you could think of.That crap is made of fish guts that have been stored in buckets with the lid on in the sun for oh bouts 6 months..That home brew will cover any smells and knock your sock right off in the process..
Glad you got the pic Matt I will sure miss you this spring...bd

I will be bringing my RER Arroyo 54"s and 54#s at my 28.5" draw. Shooting a heritage 150 with 175 up front, total arrow weight 515 grains. My other set-up will be a Centaur 58" same specs and cedarsmith shafts with 160 grain snuffers, total weight 600 grains. I may just bring the RER and when Don kills his bear, shoot his if he will let me!!

I'll have a recurve of my own making and a silvertip.  My bow will just be going on its first birthday.

Not sure this year, kinda accomplished my goals the last three years by harvesting three nice  bears with the LDB bow, my own osage selfbow/knife river stone head, and last year with Eric's beautiful hickory selfbow/tippit forged head.

 

 

     

Guess it's going to be either really primative or have wheels  :scared:  Just kiddin'...Doc
