Black Bear Lottery

MD only gives out so many permits and has a lottery system for the tags that are given out.
Bingo, my number came up this year! :cool:
Sweet!!
Got the perfect spot for ya!
Bureau of Weights and Standards compound in Germantown.
They have had a few nice bears there over the years.
 
Congrats on the tag. I just got back from working a show in Sevierville, TN. I've spent a great deal of time in the TN mountains over the years and saw a fair number of bears. Most of them were small. I was surprised to see this fat bear feeding on honeysuckle right next to the place I was staying. He had no fear of us and walked right past us.

That's a fatty, I'd like to get a crack a one like that!
 
Ya know, if you wanted to hunt black bear every year, it's just a matter of purchasing a bear stamp in PA.
No lottery.
Season is 4 days for rifle, right before Thanksgiving.
Early season for archery and muzzleloader is towards the end of Oct.
