i need a new camera bad- lol anybody got any camera advice--gonna buy a" new" used one soon

been reading reviews -- till i got a headache - i dont need to take pics of insects -- bear is darkest thing in woods and usually up against the sky which is lightest-- so it takes a decent camera --
looking for cheap and indestructable-- - easy to carry -


easy to find --one of the above - :)



treed this one yesterday -- you gonna have to look at junk pics till i get a new camera -- :)

well its last day of training in vt !


didnt tree today -hunted with ol john proud - :)
--started in a cornfield - they made a few circles rite by us in the corn - ran over a mountain and off the beeper in a few minutes -- was able to drive around and road went rite thru an older clearcut where dogs were making circles --round n round- -- saw bear cross rd ,they were a minute behind - kept making circles close -crossed again and they were gaining - several times they came by us close enuff so u could hear brush break and feet pounding than we heard them catch and start walking bear--
sounded treed but still moving lol walked it rite out to the side of road and stopped in a tiny clump of thick head high spruces-- bear was bayed-- 10 feet from road- had a dog on each side with me in the road so sorta had it surrounded - bear would occasionaly charge dogs- then back into that thick clump that was just a little thicker than the rest -bear was making lots of noise -- pretty exciting stuff -- heard a dog cry a few times -- decided that this wasnt goona get any better - was a long way to any trees big enough for a bear to tree in
----- so------- just declared victory and called dogs off - :) they was only ten feet away - was pretty cool hunt - except the time we drove around we heard every sound dogs made and a few the bear made- id like to tell ya it was a 400lb bear -- :D - but it think this vicous monster bear was lot closer to 100 lbs :)

Pete is up in maine hunting. Work has finally slowed down some for me time to get some hunting in. Started a small bear out of corn today he about run me over. I had to step out of the way so he could run bye. I picked dogs up after i see how small it was.I went to try and find another bear struck one in some apples let them down and they treed a sow and 3 cubs high in a pine tree.Got to see 5 bears today not a bad day.Here are some pics [url="http://www.hunt101.com/?p=519181&c=500&z=1"]Image[/url]
2 of the cubs
