Nice bear Newhouse.
Got buddies bear out. Was not the giant but a good one.
So anyway,, the bear ended up going into a den. I was gonna try calling it out but before trying, I had some black licorice in my pack.
Got to about 7 yards,threw a handful on the upwind side and within second, out it came sniffing.
Drew back but it seen me. I had a hard quarter to shot. Put the arrow right in the "pocket".
It spun, ran back down the hole,came out withing 2 seconds,stood staring at me while blood was SPRAYING out of it chest, took about 3 leaps and tipped over.
Very fun 15 seconds smile

Nice bear for sure. I bet you picked up the licorice and ate it, didn't you.

Same here! If I am going to intentionally be within 7 yards of a bear like that I am going to have a slug gun with me.


I have nothing clever to put here.

Pretty smart bear to camo itself as a black angus in a field.

Now that is a cool bear hunt! I'm going to start using anise as an aftershave while bear hunting.
