Bear Tags go on sale today 07/12/2011 @ 0900!!!!
Any idea how much they are?
$41
I bought mine on line and picked the tag up at CDOW. I got my first choice. I will be Elk and Bear hunting the opening week.
Best of luck
So how does one bear hunt? I’ve been going hunting every year since I was 12 years old or so and never seen a bear in the wild. I go camping several times a year and fishing just about every week. The only bears I have ever seen are in the dumpster at work. Just curious because I have a lot of vacation to burn up.

I drew a regular season rifle for BB in 54/55/551 9/2-9/30
Had a friend want to buy and OTC w/ cap and they told him he needed a elk or deer license to the same unit and season that he wanted to hunt bear in.
He didn't get one he is an archery hunter, 500 OTC either sex elk for 54 went on sale and were gone by 1400
I bought mine @ 938 am [Muaha]
In my case ya wait til about 2:30am, when the dogs start barking, open the front door and go to town. [Coffee]Quote:

Last year all I had was an elk tag and all I saw was bear and mule deer! This year I figure I have all the bases covered!

Made it down to CDOW at 0845 that morning and was already #33 in the waiting line. Got my over the counter tags for black bear for 86/82/861, second rifle season oct23-30, the bull elk tag is the same season and valid for alot of units on the map. First big game hunt in CO so Im sure this will be a fun learning experience. Any tips?
Been bad this summer here too. As early as 8pm. I wish I could bait one into the house, I am getting really tired of them.Quote:

Not too bad here now that the neighbor moved. He left some horse grain / oat food out. The bears loved it, gave em the sh*ts somthin fierce. But motion sensors go off every once in a while. Just in time to see the ass end of em walking off.Quote:

Great pics. The biggest thing that has come through my dog door besides my dogs was a red fox. Came in to eat their food.
Great pics, anymore of bears anyone?
At least it didn't eat a bag of those oats mentioned earlier and crap everywhere in their house. [LOL]
