Two other ponts I picked up recently from another bear hunter: 1) Put marshmallows on the twigs around the bait. The bear has to stick around to eat them. 2) if you think there is a large bear hitting the bait, but it never appears go into the stand with two hunters. One climbs into the stand, the other waits a few minites and then leaves. Apparently a large bear will "stage" for awhile (not unlike deer) to listen for possible danger. The bear thinks that only one hunter has come in and then left, unaware that one still in the stand. No idea if this works or not, but an interesting idea... |

Black Powder Bear
Nothing has bit my bait yet. I burnt a few ounces of honey in a beer can yesterday. I hung the can on a wire and then used a propane torch to heat it - I think this is safer as the last thing you want is for the honey to boil over and get into a portable stove (been there, done that).

Got a small black bear with my hawken about 3 weeks ago. At 12 yards I was able to put a 410 gr Buffalo Bullet Conical through the head...
