Another update......

Nothing on the ground so far but we've been enjoying the time afield, with great experiences every day. Many close calls and a few passes on deer.

This is my Son's first season bow hunting. We could probably be tagged out if using a rifle but getting close enough for the bow has brought many interesting encounters.

My Son has been within 40 yards and less of several moose now. A couple bulls, one with steam coming from his back and nostrils, head swinging side to side and grunting. He'll never forget that.

A few times now he got within 20-25 yards from cows but each time they were in the thick cover with only head and neck shots, which he doesn't want to chance. He's doing real good getting close and the right shot will come.

As mentioned earlier we saw 3 grizzlies in a place I've hunted in the past and wouldn't have thought twice about going into in the dark, or gutting an animal at last light.

He's managed to get a couple of grouse with the bow.

Taking a break for a couple days but are going to be back in the bush soon.....
