I'm going Friday. You should'a come with me. You'd be a conservative by the time you got back. There's great fishing, too. You know... Give the man a fish and you feed him for a day... Teach him to fish... and he becomes a conservative. [Big Grin]

Let's bet. My bear is bigger (B&C pts.) than either one of yours... that is, if you see any. [Razz] And I'll be hunting with a recurve... not like that whuss compound hunter, BlowHard, or whatever his name is.

What do you wish to wager?

Hey, Judge, I thought all of that was suppose to stay on the political forum? [Big Grin]

John, good luck. What gun are you going to use.
Will this be bait or spot and stalk?

Have fun, guys...

We've only got 2 weeks left in the BC season, and I haven't shot a bear myself yet. I'm stll waiting to find the 'big one.'

Maybe I should take up the Judge's bet? [Wink]

If you have half as good of a time as I did bear hunting this year you will have had a great time!

Judge,
A good Christian like yourself . . . GAMBLING!?! FOR SHAME! [Wink] [Big Grin] [Wink]

JeffP,

I would never shoot a "red" bear! You know my sympathies for the "reds". [Big Grin] [Wink] [Big Grin]

NE,

There are a few weapon choices I am considering to make the bait hunt a bit more interesting. I am thinking about using black powder or my good friend Aleko's 9.3x62 Blaser to give the hunt a Euro flair. Aside from these two choices, I will use my model 70 in .416 just because that is what I am comfortable with.

Thanks for the replies,
