Newbie to bear hunting

Every bear we shot up in Washington was absolutely delicious. My first one is my profile pic here. Tastes better than a lot of deer do.

Man it would be just too easy to hunt them in a state back east where you can bait. Spray some molasses into a dead stump and drop some day-old donuts... wouldn't even be fair but man would it be fun.

One tip on bears is that you can kinda fool their hearing and you can definitely fool their eyes, because they are nearly blind, but you can NEVER fool their nose. They can smell stuff from miles away its ridiculous.
 
Probably worth posting a lil bio about yourself in the get to know you thread! Also, this post is 3 years old so I’d maybe consider just starting a new one next time! Reminds me of a certain infamous Rokslide thread that lived for over a decade…. iykyk
 
I’ve only killed them in Washington, somebody on this thread once described the taste of Arizona bears as “someone close to Nancy Pelosi”

Hope that gets you excited!!! Hahaha
