So I am excited to give this a try. I am hoping to continue on my success from last year where I harvested a nice buck in Utah and a solid 6 ppoint bull in Wyoming thanks to Grosventrehunter! I don't have any great tags this year, just a general archery deer tag in Utah (my first archery deer tag ever), an OTC bear tag in Idaho, and possibly a OTC elk archery tag in Utah. My wife has her first big game ta ever, a general season archery deer tag. My dad drew a 3rd season Colorado deer tag, and my brother drew a Willard Peak mountain goat tag!
Here is a pic of my buck and bull from last year.[IMG]http://www.monstermuleys.info/photos/user_photos_2016/60475img0236.jpg
So I spotted a big bear from about 4 miles away. Long story short I got within 200 yards of him and was ready to shoot. My buddy said it was a grizzly. I knew it was a black bear (he was blonde) but thought I better make double sure. I took a while trying to make sure it was a black but those precious few seconds cost me a shot opportunity. It was still a pretty cool experience. Sorry no pics of the bear but I got a cool pic of muddy bear tracks going through the snow.
I went scouting with my daughter last night. We only saw 2 bucks, but I believe one of them has a chance to get close to the 160-170 range. I would be ecstatic to get him with my bow, although I don't think I will be that picky. The pics are poor quality, it was getting dark and the wind was blowing pretty hard.
