Sooooo after finding the trail cam said I should have sat monday evening,when i check it on tuesday afternoon, and being total jacked up, the little consults I had with freinds, calmed my adrenaline and I decide to wait till wenday to hunt cause i could not get to stand tuesday till about 6-630. SiO I had a long sleepless night and slow draging day at work. But 5 oclock came and off to the woods i went.

I decide to play it cool, I knew there was lots of bait in the barrel, so i just snuck in, retreived the trail cam, Took a page from icehole john and spryaed some liquid smoke all around, I dont usually do that but for instances like this,i wanted him to come in earlier than the 740 range he currentl held. I got siuated into stand, viewd the pics from tuesday and thankfully I made the right choice in backing off on tuesday, cause he came in at 430, then 730 abouts. to small of a window to thread the needle, could have easily bumped him sneaking to stand........

so I climbed  into stand, and making more noise than I wanted to of course, like a boar in a china shop no less. I got settled in. I culd catch a whiff of liqud smoke from time to time. it was working its magic the wind was perfect, coming outa the south and blowing directly to the direct he was coming from. I set the go pro to record, and waited. sent  off a few pics to arch and scoot, who told me to quit f-n  around and kill it, while arch decide to keep me distracted fro the task at hand, which i caught onto right away.LOL! 

then It happend, here he comes! Thump thump thump my heart was racing, he stoped be hind some thick brush allowing me to stand, he took a few more step clear, broadside, I was about to draw but he turned and looked my way, He then turned and headed to the barrel, which allowed me to draw, he sat downkinda half way, reached for the barrel,THUP, TWACK!

bOY WAS THE HEART IN OVER DRIVE!! I knew I couldnt go after him right away, so i made a few texts and got down and quietly left the area, for reinforcements. i picked up a freind in town, gatherd a few things, and headed back. About and half later from an easy tracking job from a Rage 2 blade chisle tip, we found him piled up about fifty yards from stand. OH MAN!! i WAS JACKED FREEKING UP. iVE SHOT ALOT OF BEARS, but this one is pretty special. Turns out its not a he but she! and she tipped the scales at a solid dressed weight of 300 pounds! big sow. In special I mean she is my second Bow Kill. I cut my teeth on my first bear 15 years ago with a Bow. I havent killed anything since till last night. Only 2 bow kills to my belt and both were Bear!  What awsome start to the season!!

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
