amusing thread..
How long ago did you hunt 61 smokepole? dont recall the report about it. Its been a few years but I hunted deer across the road in 62, seen the biggest bear i've ever seen, during that hunt. Wish i had bought a tag.
It was 3-4 years ago, archery. I didn't get a big bull but I was happy with a 5-pointer, it was my first big game animal with a bow.
I was wishing I'd had a bear tag too, got within bow range of two on that trip. One was the biggest I've seen, and he ate the nuts off the bull.
