Scoot Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 When will the results of the bear lottery be available and how do we check them as soon as possible? I searched and it looks like last year they were available on May 16th. Must be soon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icehole10 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I didn't get drawn either, guess I get to hang around the cabin and play wishy washer and Norwegian golf. I love the thrill of the hunt, but I like the baiting process as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerkbait Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Getting a surplus tag doesn't effect your points. Might as well try, but it is not easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coldtrack Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Bman, looks like it will just be me and you this year. Deadeye never got drawn on his 3rd year!!!! I did though!!!!!!! You get first choice bait site. I think I'm going to hold off for a late season bear. B-man715 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icehole10 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 The way it lines up this year should be an advantage for the hunter, being that September 1st is on the Tuesday before Labor day weekend. should give a guy a few days before the woods become alive with all the vacationers! We are seeing more and more 4 wheelers every year, and just people in general in the woods. The last couple of years our baits were working great till labor day weekend rolled around, then nocturnal. Could be a coincidence, and I know there are other factors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-man715 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) Bman, looks like it will just be me and you this year. Deadeye never got drawn on his 3rd year!!!! I did though!!!!!!! You get first choice bait site. I think I'm going to hold off for a late season bear. Late season my azz!!! Let's go for a double on opening day I ain't taking your best bait....no way..no how.... just looking forward to having a good time, helping out, and seeing you guys again. Also looking forward to taking you and Deadeye out fishing too (if he ain't to busy chasing girls) You just let me know what you want me to bring for bait and treestands. Got a few cameras we could toss out for the bears to play with too. I saw a video of a guy taking a bear with a pistol out of a ground blind at point blank range. Man would that ever get a guy going! Maybe I'll bring the .44 and try that........ on second thought, maybe not The last two bears I took with a bow, but I was thinking it would be fun to try a muzzleloader this time?

Coldtrack Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Got plenty of cameras (about a dozen), yep I'm looking forward to doing some fishing with you. You have a muzzleloader? Brian has a nice T/C Pro Hunter in 50cal, he has already killed a bear with it and I'm sure he would gladly let you use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't used it near enough and think it would be neat to shoot a bear with. Oh man I can't wait!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
