As we are getting ready for our spooking sessions coming up this fall it is a good time to reflect on my successful 2012 spring bear season. During the months of April and May I made it into the field 10-12 days spring bear hunting and had a great spring. I successfully spooked 4 different black bears! I even got to about 45 yards from one nice boar that I spooked!
It was a wonderful time learning the country looking for bears and spending some time with hunting buddies. Spring bear hunting is a great way to stay in the field, keep in physical shape for hunting season, and prepare yourself and your gear for the upcoming fall. Although I excited for the August 15 Montana archery antelope opener, I am also looking forward to pursuing black bears again next spring!
