Haven't posted for a while but this was the nicest bow kill I got last year.

I have the Bora 95 and the frickin' thing is huge. HOWEVER, I find the shoulder straps to be quite uncomfortable as they twist when you really cinch them and they cut into your chest. I think modifying the sternum strap will fix the problem. The advantage is that they cost waaaay less than the...

I think I'll stick with my rifle for hunting deer, sheep etc. Bears just don't hold the excitement with a rifle any more. I have shot waaay too many of them. So I pick up my bow and kill one of my best bears ever. Go figure.

I like to glass first light as well, especially if it has rained during the night. I find spots where the sun hits early and bears seem to congregate. It's not uncommon for us to find logging blocks with an eastern exposure where there will be several bears feeding before it gets too warm.

I have never seen a lot of deer around there. But I only travel through on the highway and the timber is very thick. Loads of bears and moose, even some wolves.

Got a couple friends who guide for him. Awesome country, very little pressure and good populations. I personally have seen 60" moose in there. Usually there are quite a lot of Caribou but I never saw any real giants. Awesome Stone sheep area.

Think about Gundahoo River Outfitters, Big Nine Outfitters or Stone Mountain Safaris. I've hunted the Bradford's area as...

45"-47" He's got good length but not enough mass to make 50".

I was in northern BC. backpack hunt. All raingear all the time.

This is my August hunt from this year.

I am a BC resident but I didn't have to pay for a charter. We went on the two leg express. My Stone hunt this year will be about $1500 including the flight.
