Nothing better than being outdoors! This years trip is my senior trip but Every year I save up my summer workings and spend it all on a hunting trip or hunting gear later in the year. Lol
I don't know anyone who has been bear hunting so ive never really considered it!

Nice bird.

I've seen pictures of that bear before. It is definitely a monster. The story I read said they were calling for elk and it rushed in on them.

Yep, that's what I read also. Supposedly It was 5 feet away from the caller when the shooter saw it. Took 5 shots according to the email

Don't worry, I'd have a heart attack too...I am an outfitter for Black Bears only and believe me, they don't get that big. A nice size Black Bear here will go 300 lbs with the average size being between the 200-250 range. Here is a pic of 1 that would be in the 300 lb range.

Stupid as in pheasants everywhere. We would walk these long standing corn strips about 500 yards long and 30 yards wide in the middle of a cut corn field. If you were blocking at the end you couldn't load your gun fast enough. Also we drove a 180 class buck out of one strip. I know cuz the guy that lives up there killed it the next week.

You must have been on a preserve or something as I have hunted pheasant (cocks only, hens are illegal here in Nova Scotia, Canada) with a German Short Hair and they certainly were not easy to find. We hunted grain and corn fields and the dog, he was a top notch performer, found them ok but the wild birds were hard to raise once he went on point. We pretty much had to kick the bird in the air to get a shot. We always knew there were lots where we hunted and if not for the dog we would have been hard pressed to get 1. It sounds more like you were raising huns (hungarian partridge) as there are about a dozen or so of them in a cubby. I know there are preserves here which offer hunts for pheasants and it's nothing to get your limit in a day as they are raised by the owners of the preserves.

I went with a friend and his dad who is originally from the area. Knows a guy that puts them up in his climate controlled barn every year.
