When faced with intense winds and unpredictable weather, the resilience and camaraderie among New Jersey's archery bear hunters shine through. Frank Mastika shares an unforgettable morning when he guided a friend through the challenges of a bear encounter, while our guest, merican Mike, and his group navigated equipment issues and strategized for Alicia, a guided hunter. It's a tapestry of success stories and mishaps that underscore the shared passion and dedication of the hunting community.
A journey through New Jersey's archery bear season wouldn't be complete without discussing the broader themes of conservation and land use. We explore how public versus private land impacts bear hunting outcomes and reflect on past and present bear kill statistics, including a notable state record. Our conversations extend beyond bears, touching on the thrill of deer hunting, the anticipation of promising bucks, and the lessons learned from a season rich in adventure and respect for wildlife.
The excitement doesn't stop with bear stories; there's a buzz about upcoming events and raffles. We look forward to the Empire State Show, a game dinner, and a new season of Bear Camp, where good food and camaraderie promise to bring people together once again. With tales from past fishing ventures and the unpredictability of wildlife encounters, listeners are invited to join us on a journey through the highs and lows of hunting and the enduring bonds it creates.
