Re: Swat thoughts

Wasn't real impressed with the Hybrid. Broke blade no exit hole, no blood etc.

Check previous threads from last yr.

Since they sent a replacement set of the new Hybrid TI.
Titanium. Figured I've give them another chance. Gonna try shooting as a mechanical this time around.

Re: ROLL CALL and A VISIT FROM YOGI!

High up in a small diameter tree? Don't know about bears in your area but thats one item we look for . Trees being pushed over. Some bears seem to like pushing over small trees. Bigger trees get all clawed up. I really believe that nothing is scent free to a bears nose. Good luck with your cameras.

Re: 2021 Season plans?

After the cut, there are pockets and edges with some decent cover.

Just starting all over with known trails .

It makes seeing them in the open easier but hoping the bigger mature bucks will use what covers left.

Re: Total State Shut down

I'm guessing they are hoping the" law abiding" hunters and guides will try to follow the rules.
Unreasonable guidelines for most to accept.

Its not a law because G$F CANT MAKE LAWS.
