Opening Day of early archery deer/bear season 23August 2014... Yes, it's a hot time to be hunting, even in the mountains of So. Arizona.
My index finger is healed enough I can finaly shoot my recurve!!! After a 2month lay-off.
I pulled all my trail-cams, due to the fire danger, so I have to rely on boots-on-the-ground scouting. I have sweet little saddle paved in bear scat, not visable on maps, between two canyons, one of which has water.
The saddle is to small to even make a brush blind in, so I'll have to hoof a ladder-stand into there, and a shot will be close, 5-15yards close...
Bear hunting here in Arizona, no baits or attractants allowed, is by spot and stalk(to thick and tight in this spot) or calling. I have a wire-less caller with remote controls. It will be an exciting hunt, with alert/hungry bear at super close range.
I let the Deer pass this time of year, as I'd rather hunt them in hard-horn...
