I miss you guys very much! I've started a new business on the side that's working out great!... I'll be posting more often, and have a lot of catching up to do with you great guys on this forum :grin: Regards, Lou :wink:

Hi Dan, thanks for your concern pal :) ...I've been busy with work and my daughters wedding /house etc.. The wife and I spent 8 days in Banff Alberta 2 weeks ago, man its beautiful out west!! I'm going back out to Alberta next September on an Elk hunt (y) My wife and I saw lots of elk, rocky...

A normal day is like have breakfast in the morning and stuff, fishing etc, unless you want to hunt in the early morning which is possible for the big bears, otherwise just relax and hunt mid afternoon till dark which also I think is best, Lou

1 or 2 for sure for next spring or fall, room for 2 more for sure :grin: Lou

Your all good to go Guy, my buddy hammers everything from deer to moose with that caliber using barnes tsx, big moose too (y) It's as you know, shot placement is King :) Lou

Nice Grizzly, I'd love to hunt one in the near future, congrats on a fine bear, Lou (y)

Your absolutely right (y) ..I do have over 1000 Square ft of finished basement which is being occupied by my daughter and fiancé, getting married in december :grin: ..the man cave is getting 1 step closer, and all to myself and the wifey :grin: Lou (y)

Hi fellas, Silvio did a great job again, here's a few picks before I cam home, more pics to follow :grin: Lou

That looks good, any of those well do the job just fine, with proper shot placement bears aren't hard too kill, even with a lesser caliber, just use a good bullet incase a blood trail is needed. Lou

Thanks guys, the next pics will be when it's all done, should be all done this Saturday, if not before, Lou :)

as a side note, this bear must of got caught in a trap or snare when he was younger, he was missing 4 out of 5 bear claws and was stubby on the fingers, here's a pic of the claw transplant that we did, pretty simple to do. Lou

Got the cape on the manakin on Friday, should be all done this week with habitate and artificial rocks etc, should be all good, here's some pics freshly after mounting the cape, note that the string on the nose is for a snarl, and the cloth in the mouth is to keep the gum work damp and...
