Can't wait for the trip to Quebec, I started getting some things ready. I have no shortage of bows but decided on My Zipper ILF to make the trip. My Uncle Herb got me started many years ago and when he passed I got a few of his old guns. I really had plenty of guns so I sold them and bought a Fancy 17" Zipper ILF with all the bells and whistles. I thought that it would only be right to take it on this hunt. I have 2 sets of Dyrad Static tip limbs both at 46#'s that should do the job nicely. So Uncle Herb will be with me in the bush in June. Again......can't wait!!

Practice short shots! All the stands I was at up there were close and close to the ground. I shot mine at 6 yards and I could stand on the ground and the stand was barely above my head. Tom runs a great camp, you are going to have a great time!

6 yards. That is a long shot up at Tom's. You'll have a blast. Don't forget your Thermacell's and your skinning knife.

Ron, when you think those bears are staring you down... they are really just admiring your bow.

Very cool Ron! Any pictures of that tricked out zipper to show?

Man you are going to have a blast Ron. I have been the last two years and managed to take a bear each time. If you averaged the two shots, I guess it would be about six yards, lol. For me, though, it is very easy to mess up a six yard shot. Being that close to those critters just a few feet off the ground can be pretty frazzleing. Not sure that's a word, but if not it should be because that's what it does, lol. Also very exciting. Pick a spot.

Beautiful bow Ron! Hope you have a great hunt this spring.
I am looking forward to the hunting season as well. Still up in the air as to which bow to take. Maybe a guy should just have one?
Nah, too much fun deciding.

Thanks KAT, That's my Zipper in memory of my Uncle Herb.......I think it will be up to the task!!
