elkman Report post Posted August 10, 2007 well went out for the morning hunt today in 23. I called for about 20 minutes, and nothing. I set up my 15s and as soon as i put them up i saw a bear. he was not interested in the call at all, but he was on the move. I gatered up my gear and took off toward him to get a shot. Afte i moved about 100 yards i sat up for the shot just in time to see him drop off into a brushy canyon. Guess thats the luck. maybe tomorrow i will see him again. Anyone else see anything today. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DesertBull Report post Posted August 10, 2007 I wanted to go, but had too many things to do at work. I'm torn between scouting for my antelope hunt or going to my bear spot in 23S. Sounds like alot of people are going to 23S, so I might skip it. I have a feeling the quota will be met real soon though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good luck I was out opening day and glassed a cinnamon 4 ridges away. I boogied over to the adjacent ridge......nothing. I glassed... nothing....I called..... nothing..... 10 min. later I was in the middle of howling when I heard somthing crashing through the brush. I located the sound...It was my cinnamon. I had my sites on him waiting for a clear shot..I was forced to take a shot through some brush at 220 yds. Nothing.I stayed up there till this morning never found him again.Ill be back tues. morning.

bustedknuckleinc Report post Posted August 12, 2007 I was in 23s this weekend and everbody and there brother and his best buddy were out as well. I herd that a couple of bears had been taken opening morning. I think it is safe to say that the quota will be reached so get out soon if you want to go.

elkman Report post Posted August 12, 2007 Well i got a bear finally. After a long hunt for three days i connected today with a nice boar. I will post pics this evening if i can figure it out. I think he will go 19-20". He was about three miles away when i saw him eating some pears. We made the mad dash up to within range. I sat up for the shot which was 390 yards. I squeezed the shot and connected. the bear dropped in his tracks. We then had to skin and bone the boar and pack him out, it seemed like 10 miles, to top it off it was 100 degrees. WOW. We seen a total of 8 bears in three days. We took another bear yesterdy, called him in, but he was nothing to speak of size wise. Note the quota has been filled in 22 -23 If anyone can post some pics for me let me know. Thanks josh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
