Awesome hunt, and a great bear. Congrats.

Congrats on the Bear and good time.  Bear camps are some of the best because you always get to meet new people of like mind, there is a lot of "hang out" time and the hunting is in the evening so no super early mornings.

Great time of the year when bear season starts.
Congrats!

I wish I could have had a camera to get a picture of your face when you first described those bears climbing into your brush blind! Man you were on FIRE with excitement. It was an epic event when you told the story of "Kong" rushing your blind. People talked you your hunt story long after you were gone.
It was awesome being a part of your first trad kill experience. I hope this is not the last hunting camp we share. You boys were a hoot.

Hey Jerry, speaking of, I am gonna call you today to try and grab two slots for next year! Hopefully I didn't wait too long!

That is a good looking bear. And you had a good time also. I have to say that stick you shot it with looks crooked to me.--  

Hahaha, it is Mike, and it definitely did its part of the deal! When I get the one in that you're making for me this one is going to be retired but I don't think I can ever part with it!

.........the "HUNT" is actually a small fraction of the experience , but you already know that and have the memories for a lifetime .

Congratulation ...
on your successful journey (babamadizwin) !!
