Countdown To Bear Season

In this episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman, Mitch discusses his experience with bear scouting and hunting leading into the 2024 season.  After a successful 2023 season, he is back in New Jersey for bigger and better things.  There were many takeaways from last season, forcing Mitch to modify his preparation for an even better outcome this year.  This includes the importance of scouting and finding food sources, as well as the need for fallback options and scouting for people pressure.  Finding food in summer is a start, but it's also crucial to continue to monitor as the season start to close in. Mitch shares the scale of land he is scouting both with cameras and boots-on-ground, and how he plans to choose stand locations for wind direction and lay of the land.  The goals and outlook for this season are slightly different from normal: be patient, learn from your experiences, and set realistic expectations for the hunting season with the time that's available to prepare.
