gotta check on 2 things first before i really get ready...first, gotta make sure a smoke pole handgun is legal...looking at this one:
SmokeStick
After that, i gotta call the dow and make sure that i can have a smokestick and a bow at the same time...
crap just watched this vid...those things are pita to clean...The ones we saw are a lot smaller, i figure gut em out and drag em back...getting up the hill is gonna be a biatch. I'm thinking i could attach a long as rope to my quad, and use the winch to pull em up the hill...

i found this on another thread...damn no BP pistols allowed...
"
In Colorado, there are minimum velocity and energy requirements for cartridge/centerfire pistol hunting, and our BP pistols fall under the same pistol regulations. A pistol is a pistol - as far as the DOW is concerned. Since there are minimum velocity and energy requirements, and nobody can say how you loaded your BP pistol, there is no way to verify the pistol had enough powder to propell the ball fast enough to meet the requirements. So none. Zip. Nada. No BP/muzzleloading pistols. Period."
Send me a PM if you would please. Have friends / residence in unit 039 and might be able to help. Depending on location.
Most of the bears there are under 150lbs, I got an ex nfl linebacker going with me who's an ox, so he'll be "hunting" with me. I don't know who's bigger or meaner...I'm going up there tomorrow for elk, my buddy finally found em and i got the coordinates.
OBTW, i saw some trout jumping also in the platte when i was up there last week. 2 of em came completely out of the water...
here's how my bear hunt will go...
