    What impact do Bears have?

    They will come hard to a fawn bleat so imo the result wouldn't be very good.

    6.5x55 ammo

    first off I have to say that my 6.5 rules! you might try out a few bullets from a couple reloaders and see how it goes first so here are a few links. these reloaders will work up the load to it's potential. the factory rounds are wimpy because they don't want to get in trouble if someones vintage swedish mouser from ww2 blows up. I used this guy to work up a load that is so accurate it is scary! honest .5 inch groups out of a encore with a custom heavy barrel. I am shooting 129 grain hornady sst's at 2620fps. try this link: http://www.johnsonsprecisionreloading.com/price/ another reloader that I had good luck with and the price is more reasonable is: http://www.thehuntingshack.com/ good luck!

    swarovski spotting scopes?

    the swaro is a great scope (the best by far) but the only thing the hd glass does is inhance the higher colors(yellow, red) at close range. this is useful for birders and photographers but overkill for long range glassing. save your money and buy the regular glass. I don't know doug at cameraland but he must be a great guy by all of the positive feedback.

    Gnats, Gnats, Gnats

    Even with the repellent the gnats are still going to be flying in your eyes, nose, and ears. Here is what I do for a long sit on a hot day. Get some swimming goggles some ear plugs and a nose plug (that the swimmers wear also) and good luck!

    I am sorry but every time I see you list something on here it is overpriced and I am unable to just sit back and watch you try to make others think it is such a smokin' deal. so here is a pair with a full factory lifetime warranty against any repair not just defects. the binos will be in the purchasers name so there will be no issues if returned for repair. they are $25 dollars cheaper than what you want. I talked to Chris at swfa and this pair has no cleaning scratches. item#4937 Swarovski 10x50 SLC 58010, Green rubber armored, roof prism, center focus, light handling wear. $1,199.95

    horse or mule

    This pic is my buddies son on my mule Harriett. He is 14 and she is 12. She is as straight as they come and I wouldn't sell her for any ammount of cash. I have another mule named Gus and he packs meat (including Bear) and rides as well. Gus is 7 and I think if he lives to be 10 he might turn into a really nice animal.

    Sitting water!

    Rey it's not that you don't care for the style of hunting it is the fact that whoever hunts like that is a unskillled moron. You don't disagree with the hunting styles you degrade and belittle the people who do hunt from water and with hounds. Your last comment pretty much sums up your juvenile personality.

    Sitting water!

    These are all quotes from you Rey on previous posts. They all sound like pot shots to me. "I don't think it's cool to wait by a water hole though. Anybody can do that." "It's kind of like chasing dogs around and shooting a cat or a bear out of a tree. All the hunter has to do is follow and I know that is hard - riding the horses and such - but there is no skill involved." "Where does the skill and fair chase come in by using this tactic? It is the same as waiting in a stand over food that is planted specifically for them. It is like shooting cattle. There are feeders that "ring" when they are dispersing the food - the bell rings and deer come to eat and somebody shoots them. Then some guy says, "Wow. What a hunt!"

    Sitting water!

    there is no better way to help a youth harvest an animal than hunting from a blind near water and with hounds in a tree. once they get there first they are hooked for life. I am way to much of a spaz to hunt water myself:)

    "All the hunter has to do is follow and I know that is hard - riding the horses and such - but there is no skill involved. " Reynaldo I refuse to agree to disagree. That statement is the absolute most asinine thing I have read on the internet in quite a while. "No skill involved" why them is fightin' words. I have 15 big game western big game animals with a bow and the hardest thing I have ever done is hound hunt by far. If you think it is just a matter of following a pack of dogs around until they tree you are sorely mistaken. As far as the ethics are concerned try training a pack of dogs and then come and tell me how unfair it is. Try tring a mule to do what you want without dying in the process and come and tell me how easy that was. Try riding a mule along some rim rock cliffs without urinating in your chonies and then come talk to me about how it takes no skill. I average a lion or a bear around every 8 times out. Even the best houndsmen in az probably at best average 1 for every 3 or 4 days out. Once the dogs are on the ground you are basically at their mercy as far as where you will end up on the end of a track. If you enjoy riding a mule or hiking from sun up to sun down this is the sport for you.
