Title: Pa Black Bear Encounter
Post by: RAU on November 15, 2015, 10:17:00 PM
Was out on Wednesday and had these 2 bears come in close. If this has been tomorow Nov 16 (archery bear opener) one of them would have been in serious trouble! Hope the video works. I've never posted a vid from photobucket, let me know

Nice sized bears! I'm guessing you were using some deer lure?

Rau,
  Several times I've had bruins show interest in mock scrapes/scent wicks/drag trails etc. The bear I took in Oct., however, was just traveling thru a pinch point on a game trail( Bearing Down post). Good luck starting the 16th, love to see a bear post then from you.

No lure at all just a an oak flat with brushy trail leading down to unpicked corn field. I think they're picking up my scent on the ground and getting a little nervous. Then when I whisper hey bear and laugh that's it they're gone!!

What's the old saw about a hawk sees a leaf fall, and deer hears it fall, but a BEAR smells it fall?!

Amazing animals...

I've only seen bears in PA in all the countless hours in the woods, 2x... once in late MZ/Flint season and once a pair of cubs in archery... I was a tad nervous getting down and walking out at dead dark given they'd gone thru late and I never saw Momma!

Alls well that ends well.

Geez, I imagine deer scatter when they see them coming. Turkeys, blue jays, squirrels, coyotes now bears.
