I remember the first article I read about a shot being a dinner bell on Kodiak. We unintentionally did that by smelling fishy after a great day of catching trout and not even keeping any. One brown was pacing us about 25 yards to the downwind side. Carried the .454 in my hand for a couple hundred yards. My wife started singing and it veered away and all was well. FRAC LIVES MATTER

My old buddy who now lives in AK. told me of his bow hunting experience there .He told some local there that he knew all about bears as he experienced them often in Mt.After the first couple of hours there he was a NEW BELIEVER and ready to get on the ferry for home ! You can ride a fast horse slow but you can't ride a slow horse fast .

Not sure what that implies about your wife's singing lol Sometimes nothing can be a real cool hand
