No big surprise the Bmore sun was involved in this. I bet if someone tried to take an ad out for a hunting show, gun show, or taxidermy show they probably wouldn't allow it.

I just got back this afternoon. Hunted all day Monday & this morning, but didn't see a bear. I REALLY, REALLY thought I saw one this morning, but it turned out to be 2 big dark gobblers. O well. Guess I'll try again next year. Still had a good time.

If anyone is interested VA has an early Muzzle loader season in the peak of the rut. After the first three days bear season comes in. I hunt near front royal in the national forest. Every year we see Bear. Of course I always see them before u can legally take one, but I'm sure one day it will happen.
