I wouldn't pick a spot until you get out here
Gonna be hard to drive any roads unless they get plowed all winter
That is the best part about spring bear, just exploring
Just did a big drive the other day where I will usually see 600 to 800 or more deer and lots of antelope
Saw maybe 100 deer and not one good buck, I think we saw 3
1 group of 40 or so antelope which are the first ones I have seen down there this winter
It is one place I will probably not hunt...
I am going to probably put the 2.5-10x on the new Howa mini 6mm arc when I put it together
Never had any problems with Leupold but I also get 40% off or I would probably go another direction
I shoot the 109 hybrid out of a 6 creed at 3100 fps
Have had exits on everything from coues deer to cow elk
They work very well
Probably around 20 ish animals
Was watching 2 big bucks in the tetons 15 years or so ago and had 4 or 5 of them come out in the rocks below them and start hunting rock chucks for several minutes
Was a very cool experience
Looks like you are in the right spot
Keep at it they are in there
If I wasn't out of town I would come give you a hand
Try to get angles on any cover and glass it
Move a bunch
