Spot Light,

I suspect bears may be contributing to the recent decline in calves in our area. Last year was the first year I have noticed that so many cows were by themselves and very aggresive. This year looks to be the same. After walking many slashes I can report I found only two spots where two calves are alive. I sure hope someone realizes something is up and takes action.

I like to be hunting anywhere around the 21st of Sept. We have shot 80% of our large bulls on this day. Its like magic for me. Although smaller bulls will reliably come anytime during the archery season for us. Giant bulls that live a nocturnal existance are easiest before the actually few days of the rut. I have called in a couple of bulls in December during the fourth rut before. Opening day leading to the 23rd I will not miss for anything.

Tru_Shot no problem bud anyway I can help just ask ,my e-mail is on my profile and I'd be glad to help you out in any way I can .Archery for moose is the most satisfying way to go when hunting moose .I haven't chambered a cartridge since I started bowhunting anytime just send me an e-mail.

Yeah mooseman something has to be done about the bears. I pick up a licence and our group shoots all the bears we come across in deer and moose season. I also agree that the 20th of Sept is the best week for moose and I too hace had the ocasional Post-Rut suscess whith bulls. I think they are like the whitetails, when the cows arn't bred they come back into heat in Nov and Dec. Oh and great pic. U up in the area of Dryden where that big deer was poached last year?

Bringing back the spring bear hunt would help. You guys like that first week the best? Temps can be way too hot for me. The group before me was swimming in the lake before I get there. I prefer to try and hit a frosty morn.
