Steve;
Have you done any spring calling with the cub distress sounds??

Mayhap a 'Scratch & Sniff' logo on those pictures would be in order. ![[Razz]](tongue.gif)

Koko, A few falls back, buddy and I were archery elk hunting when we spotted mama bear with two young cubs about 200 downslope from us.
After watching them for a bit, my buddy pulled out a open reed call of some sort and gave his best attempt at a cub-in-distress sound. The cubs immediately went up tree's and the sow came right up the hill.
As she was approaching I dug the camera out of my pack, and at about 30 yards I took a pic. At the sound of the "click" mama let out a loud WOOF and for a second I thought we might have trouble, but she took off back to the cubs and the last we saw of them they were still covering ground a half mile later.
If were blind calling and did not know she had cubs, it would have been real easy to shoot, especially with a rifle, only to find out she was a wet sow.

Lonny;
That is, indeed, one of the problems with the spring season. I could see that also happening using a fawn distress.
The other problem is that there's 6 foot of snow on the road up to the mountain. ![[Frown]](frown.gif)

Koko, at least you got some moisture in the mountains waiting to come out. Up this way, the snowpack is waaay down. We just might burn up this summer.

We must have gotten all of your moisture. The 'Talking Barbie Head' on the TeleVision said that we've gotten more rain so far this year than ALL of last year combined. If this keeps up, the day may come when I see more quail while out hunting than I have in my backyard.
