cecilware Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 I spent the whole end of the summer up til today tracking a group of 3does a fawn a button buck and a 4 pointer that all hung out together. Using bait and camera all around a funnel and a few adjacent little clearings. I chose a clearing and I know another guy set up on the funnel. I took on of the bigger does the other guy took another doe and the past week on my cam and his no deer just bear. This morning I sat and had mama black bear and her two cubs under me for an hour(the cub climbed the tree under my stand and hungout on the tree for a little and mama was staring right at me to say I didnt almost crap my pants would be a lie) my questions is, is it common for bear to push out deer like this my guess is when we thinned there little group of deer they got pushed out by bear or seperated this ever happen to anyone else?

clrj3514 Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 I would imagine you've got more deer than just that group & the bear may have them spooked a little but they should be back. I have bear pics & deer pics within 10 minutes of each other and even had a buck & bear in a few pics together. Just be patient & don't upset that sow.

cecilware Posted October 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Makes sense the woods I hunt is thousands of acres I should of specified that in this little area Ive really been paying attention are those deer.Im gonna put the cam back out without bait to see if the bear still go by the cub paid no attention to my corn and dug up the ground where I had some rutn apples that was gone a long time ago odd. Going to purchase a bear mace now just in case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowhunter97 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 I dont think so. I have had pictures of a bobcat and a picture of a 8pt 20 mins later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PotashRLS Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Not likely. They live in close proximity all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what Ive always believed Ive had sets of pics on my cam of a bear or two then an hour later a few whitetail but ever since these bears started showing up on my cam and when I sit no deer theyre prob just in a different place but still close proximity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
