Snake River, Oregon Spring Bear Hunt
Bear smell doesn't bother them at all. They've packed out quite a few bears, even though it has been a handful of years. I was careful loading them however, making sure that they were going to be okay. I put a quarter up to their faces before loading, letting them get the smell out of the...- shay mann

Doe hunts are invaluable for me as a bowhunter
