The are all half mile down the road. :rofl: These are on my land up holly creek rd. Momma says they gotta be gone before we build the house :shoot: I've counted 8 individuals. This first and second are of big boy or as I call him "roly poly" He is the biggest I've seen in the past 2 years..:hair: Third picture...I walked in on the sow on the right. Got too close and spooked her, she growled and stomped then ran. Talk about a rush, I had to change shorts after that one. The 10mm felt small in my hand that day!

I imagine they'll leave when you stop putting corn out and probably not before. Nice bears!!!:)

Feeder is coming out this weekend. They were here before the corn. Just not as often. The next couple weeks of pictures without the feeder will determine where I am opening day. I was getting 150 to 300 pictures a week without feeder. Mostly deer and bear. Since feeder went up getting 300 to 500 pics a week, 95% bear. All hours of the day. I'll say it takes some R&D to make a bearproof feeder. That pvc feeder did'nt last long. They would clean it out in a day. In the end it took a 15 foot peice of 1 1/2"x1/4" tubing, 80lb bag of quick creet, automatic feeder, and a boat winch.

That's alot of pictures in a week. Bears are pretty ingenious, that's for sure. My friends buddy had one at his camp. It was after the hide from a skinned out doe, that was hanging over the deer pole. The bear couldn't reach the hide so he grabbed a nearby drywall bucket and stood on the bucket and to try and grab the hide. He still was unable to and before he left he apparently threw the drywall bucket in disgust!:banginghe
