>>2203140I live in a county that has a super early (October 2nd) bear firearms season, but deer is only open for archery then. I'd be happy to carry both but the laws don't seem to allow both, and I'm not entirely comfortable trying to stalk into a bear in fairly dense brush with just a bow.
Last year I notched my tag with a button buck at ~40 yards with a 1oz slug. Just a touch higher than I'd have liked but he didn't even take a step.
