Contact me at Raptor Archery 541-386-4503 for more info.
Only four hunters this week so dont drag your feet.

TTT for a hunt I WILL do oneday!!!!

This is an awesome opportunity guys! If you've ever wanted to learn to build bows but feel like you need some guidance, Teds the guy.

You get to build your own bow, hunt lots of bears, see lots of wolves, and get to eat some of Gary's smoked SPAM.     I'd go for the SPAM alone but the bows, bears, and comaradrie are second to none.     CK

Thanks for the kind words Curtis, Smoked Spam Ah yes forgot about that, true redneck when you smoke a chunk of spam , funny that did taste good.That was the first time Gary ever blessed us with that idea. He got a new smoker this year so who knows what he will come up with. I was more interested in the prime rib steaks I barbQ the last dayand all the sausage , bacon and sourdough pancakes to tank up on at breakfast yum!I think the only guy that looses weight on these trips are Gary and I.
I have a bunch of king salmon in the smoker right now, but the way my family goes through that it wont last till next week.

Hey Ted, lets see some bear pics!!!!!

Smoked Salmon in the smoker now. Hmmmm, I think I have some work I need to get done in Hood River this week  

Ted how many spots are open for the bow/bear trip  

 

From the porch feeder.
 

Thanks for the memories guys.
One of the best hunts I've been on!!!

That cute fellow on the 4 wheeler looks kinda familiar.    

Nice looking bears fellows. Awesome looking bows as well!!!!

Man if that don't look like tons of fun, thanks for putting up the pics guys.   nice bears!!  

All pms sent back , best if you call however as I talk better than I type for answering so many questions, loads if interest now we need some to step up. Some have asked us to do a fall bearhunt/ bowbuild , so if we get enough interest I will gladly add that to our schedule, say the second week of Sept. For now lets fill this one up.
Thanks for the picks Curtis and Paul, I figured that pic of big black would get you to show your head Paul.

Heres one that got away , beautiful blonde that none of our hunters got that year, those scratches on that tree are about 6 feet up. Most of the guys know this bait as "Angy Sow" ya gotta come to camp to hear that story!

Still my personal best Ted    although I've been feeding one a mite bigger on one of my baits the last two years.

Good luck this year!!

Got a great deal for the first guy to sign up, one of the guys that has a deposit on hand  had a last minute conflict this last season and had to cancel , seems he cant make those dates this year either, so , whoever calls first saves $500.00 off the cost of the trip, Id like to get him some consolation money rather than have him eat the loss.

Looks like good fun. Nice pics.

Ted

It was a pleasure talking to you today Sir, and really wish I could make it this year!  After talking with you about the hunt it is one I will start saving for TODAY!!!  

Up to the top for a what sounds like a hunt of a lifetime!

Looks like fun
