Careful young un.... this Huntbear thing is gonna help pack out your deer when you connect...  ;) ;) ;) ;)

And yes.. Rex will help... give him a scent,,,, I am sure he can track it right to the nearest chipmunk at the very least...  :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

Must have happened during this hunt.  Wonder if he shot the bears before or after he shot the buck.

Two bear, with a bow, and no meat on the table.  Either more time at the range or better broadheads sounds like the medicine needed; or both. 

If I put an arrow in a bear, I know it will bleed a lot, even with a through-and-through shot.  If there is no blood, the wound is closed/plugged, or not sever enough to kill the animal.

I use Slick Tricks and know if I place an arrow in a bear, the hole will be big enough to drive a truck trough.  Well, maybe not that big, but it will be big enough to make the bear bleed out real fast.

Keep looking, don't give up, and good luck.

Well its official, bears are not ment to be shot by a bow.
:bash: :bash: :bash:
I shot a brown bear with my bow at 37 yds.  Only about an 8'6" she grizz but she only went about 50 yds and piled up.  Look up black bear and grizzly in Pope and Young, you might actually be surprised how many people can and do kill bears with a bow.
 :twocents:

Oh yeah you might also want to look at the sticky thread at the top of the page and read about shot placement on bears before you go out and waste another.

Dude your post gives responsible hunters a bad name. Might think twice before posting something like this..... Hopefully you've learned YOUR not meant to shoot a bear with a bow and either quit winging arrows or pick up your gun if you are any good with that or just stick to deer bud. :bash: :bash: :bash:

I just found this thread.

You have got to get back out there and find those bears.  You owe it to the animals and yourself.  Luckily you can get a second bear tag.  Did you try to follow the blood trail?  If/when it ends, look for other sign - fresh trails, broken brush, scat, etc.  Look for the most minute blood drops - as small as the tip of a pencil.  You will be surprised at what you see when you spend the time looking in detail.  Get as many people as you can to help you.  Bribe them if you have to.

take a few bottles of peroxide and put it in a spray bottle, if you think you see blood or think some can be around, spray it and it will detect the blood, the bad part about bear is when you shoot them you need to know the chances of leaving a desent blood trail are pretty slim, i will bet that you have walked right by these bears and didnt know it.....
my grandpa always said "if it aint broke dont fix it"
