    Default Archery Bear season

    Apparently this seasons archery bear season runs concurrent to the 5th week of archery for most of the state. Am I seeing this right?
    Wow, I'm going to actually purchase a tag this year since I will be out hunting anyway. Saw three bears this morning while deer hunting. Each one was an easy 10 yd shot.

    Well in 2004 I took a 583 lb bear with the bow,it was Four guys getting that bear out and the meat was not the most tender but the rug was awesome. In 2008 I took a 200 lb bear with a Marlin 30-30.I was able to drag it out myself and the meat was very good,just some info that bigger isnt always better ! Unless were talking anatomy !
