There will be photos, just gonna take a bit. Now some stats......Zipper ILF riser, Dryad static recurve limbs, 45# @ 29". Full length Carbon Express with 100 gr brass inserts and an ACE standard. Total .....600 gr. The bear, a boar was checked the next morning and came in at 147#. I learned to skin and bone one in a couple of hours.......I had excellent teachers.

Great news!!! Congratulations Ron!!!   :clapper:    :clapper:    Like I said before we only need one "bear misser" in the club.    Len, get that camera mounted & ready on your bow. We want to see it when it "happens".

Here's some info on this hunt. One thing that is different......it's hands on. You can help move stands if need be. You can help with the baiting. You can help with the skinning/butchering. You help in the kitchen, in fact one night everyone was going to hunt so they let me cook dinner.....   :scared:  and nobody got sick   :biglaugh:   You can drop off guys and pick them up. Blood trailing .....more eyes are needed some times. The whole deal is a great learning experience.
