Getting ready for Bear Quest in June.......bow pic pg.2

[ron w]

Can't wait for the trip to Quebec, I started getting some things ready. I have no shortage of bows but decided on My Zipper ILF to make the trip. My Uncle Herb got me started many years ago and when he passed I got a few of his old guns. I really had plenty of guns so I sold them and bought a Fancy 17" Zipper ILF with all the bells and whistles. I thought that it would only be right to take it on this hunt. I have 2 sets of Dyrad Static tip limbs both at 46#'s that should do the job nicely. So Uncle Herb will be with me in the bush in June. Again......can't wait!!

Best of luck Ron.

Practice short shots! All the stands I was at up there were close and close to the ground. I shot mine at 6 yards and I could stand on the ground and the stand was barely above my head. Tom runs a great camp, you are going to have a great time!

[Stone Knife]

Very cool Ron I hope you do well.

[meathead]

6 yards.  That is a long shot up at Tom's.  You'll have a blast.  Don't forget your Thermacell's and your skinning knife.

[ron w]

I'll need a knife......?

[Cyclic-Rivers]

Ron, when you think those bears are staring you down... they are really just admiring your bow.

Good luck! Bear Quest is a fun hunt!

Best vacation of my life! I had a rediculously long shot at my bear... 11 yards!       I thini I had the longest shot of the week!  As a group we tended to most of the baits. They are close. And LOOOOOOOWWWWWW

[huntmaster70]

Don't forget your camera!

[Sockrsblur]

Very cool Ron! Any pictures of that tricked out zipper to show?

[bruinman]

Man you are going to have a blast Ron. I have been the last two years and managed to take a bear each time. If you averaged the two shots, I guess it would be about six yards, lol. For me, though, it is very easy to mess up a six yard shot. Being that close to those critters just a few feet off the ground can be pretty frazzleing. Not sure that's a word, but if not it should be because that's what it does, lol. Also very exciting. Pick a spot.

Want to  hear all about it at the Muzzy.

[oldgoat]

Stay out off the chocolate chip cookies,they make you go blind and you want see any bears.

Here is the Zipper that Ron is going to kill a bear with in Quebec.

Beautiful bow Ron!  Hope you have a great hunt this spring.
I am looking forward to the hunting season as well.  Still up in the air as to which bow to take.  Maybe a guy should just have one?
Nah, too much fun deciding.

Thanks KAT, That's my Zipper in memory of my Uncle Herb.......I think it will be up to the task!!
