Despite being almost a washout,Saturday proved to be interesting.Jordan was in for the weekend but we decided to sit out sat morning because it was pouring.There was a slow steady rain in the afternoon so we decided to give it a try.I drew a blank but Jordan saw three decent bucks that he couldn't get a shot at.Right at Dark,I hear him whistle for me so I climbed down and headed over to his tree to find out that he just shot a bear.He wasn't sure of the shot as bear vitals sit back a little so we decided to leave it go until morning.We never did find the arrow and there was no blood so we had to just try and figure out where he went.The morning search was futile so we came back in the afternoon and crawled through a huge patch of soaking wet autumn olive.You can't see 10 feet but just before we were ready to hang it up,he yelled that he found it.He was sure the bear ran down hill buit it cut back and died in that jungle.It was a decent boar,probably 150lbs or so.He had to leave at 4:00am to go back to work so I have a WGO field checking it later.
