Was Another Active Month On Bowhunting.net
 Is
the grass really greener on the other side?
 The
other day Timm Getts and I watched as this
big guy settled the issue, and I don't think any of us want to argue
with all 1,500 pounds of him. Here's a closer look at his
headware. and here's all
of 'em.
It's
time to bowhunt for Black Bears.

a bear gets too close. FireTacks Trail Markers to find your way out in

 Ray
Howell's Polor Bear Hunt Journal
In
March we all followed Ray's polor bear bowhunt as he phoned in daily to
the PSE Archery web site. It is a story of, "a land so cold that the moonlit
sky is the color of fire, of a giant man wearing caribou skins, dogs made
of iron, endless sled rides, and a boyhood dream that came true." Here's
Ray's story, in print.
CHAINSAWS
& ME, by Linda K. Burch
"Bobcat's first orders were
for me to tear out a culvert and add a length of pipe. He also said to
take down a dozen trees."

The Deer #17
 The
sun is still high on this early season afternoon. It illuminates everything
it shines on but it and makes the shadows look even darker than usual.
You hear the cautious footsteps of a deer -- somewhere close to you. Can
you find the deer? And how many are there?

Wild
Hogs At Texas S (June 2001)
Rick Philippi and I spot
and stalk the wild hogs of the Texas S Bowhunting Ranch. It's the toughest
way to hunt them, and the most dangerous, but, you know what, that's the
way we like it.

Fire Tacks Trail Markers
-
by Dave Conrad - This
Retro-Reflective technology is something new. Dave recommends that every
bowhunter use the FireTacks system. If not for hunting then for personal
safety during night or low light conditions.
Ontario
Bears, by Rick Philippi
Quietly, the big black boar
sat down to survey the area. Then it laid down on his belly, right under
the tree Rick was in!
GOPHER
IT - by Art Champoux
"The meat is a little of
the taste of a rabbit. And they are in the realm of huntable. Therefore
you can do yourself and landowners a favor by pursuing these sneaky and
alert animals. But remember they are smart.

Find
The Deer #16
 A
faint streak of sunlight pops up on the Eastern horizon and you can barely
make out the dark shadows of 3 deer moving by you. The late October daylight
creeps into the area as you quietly wait in your treestand. You see a group
of deer in a small opening 100 yards away and they are headed in your general
direction. You check your bow, make sure your arrow is on the rest properly
-- good, everything is in order and you are ready to draw, if you
get the opportunity.
You wait a long time, too
long, you're thinking. But your patience pays off and you see two deer
browsing on acorns in the trees 35 yards from you. You watch them carefully,
mentally talking them closer to your tree. Woops, something moved directly
below you ... and you peer down through the leaves ... (1024x768)

The
Online Daily Logs of this fast paced wild hog bowhunt last week got over
90,000 hits. If you missed it, or if you didn't catch it all, join Rick
Philippi and me as we spot and stalk the wild hogs of the Texas S Bowhunting
Ranch. It's the toughest way to hunt them, and the most dangerous. From
The Beginning
Spring
Bear Season is happening right now in several Canadian provences and
a few states in the US. Imagine, you've sat in the dense, green, Spring
woods for 2 hours. You haven't heard or seen a thing. And, bingo, there
is a bear 20 yards away! (1024x768)
