In califoprnia any bait for bear is a no no , theres goes soaking the neighbours poodle with sardine oil and staking it out idea. :rolleyes: .
You can hop but you can't hide. Yahi Bowmen. Its not how far you can shoot but how close to the game you get when you shoot. Sights we don't need any sights. Why waist time reloading when I can be making arrows.

Well, I wasn't going to do it, but I am going to get my bear tags. I need to scout for some ground that is easy for me to get around on and do some some scouting.

If your really going to get your Bear Tags, let me know, I'll get some and we can roll together.

Have you got a place to hunt? If so lets make some plans.

No. But I think we can stumble around the NF enough to bump into something.. I've been up around Arrowhead before but not for bears. Rumor has it that they have there fair share.

It would be good to record the call on a Fox Pro and have it set 100 yards out when the target comes in for the kill, or it might be you that becomes the kill.db

A 270 will be plenty.

I don't think we can use electronic callers for bear ????

Anything that is designed for big game that shoots well through your gun.

I was using the 150's in my 270 for deer. They were federal fusions I think when I bought a bear tag along with my deer tags for D14 just in case I stumbled across a bear. But since I don't hunt that zone any more I have been shooting my 243. I wouldn't hesitate to shoot a bear with a 270 with 150gr bullets.
