nice boo boo k357, so whats the story? were all waiting  :IBCOOL:

Actually the story is kinda embarrassing...lmao off but here goes..We were driving and I happened to spot the bear about 4o yards off the road.. I yelled BEAR BEAR BACK UP!! We got stopped and I was so excited I couldn't figure out how to get my seat belt off!  I finally did.. grabbed my rifle.. ultra light kimber montana 308. crept down the road aways shaking from excitement..and there he was still standing there just staring at me. After I steadyed my rifle I got my first shot off! Right in the center of the chest! he started moving so I moved to where I could see him again and fired a second shot. Hit him in the chest again 2 inches from the other shot! He was stopped and kinda swaying back and fourth so I fired a third and he dropped! I'm not gonna lie and tell you I was so filled with excitement and shaking that it was easy to steady my rifle..lol In fact it took me so long to steady my rifle for the first shot cementyfinisher was yelling shoot it shoot it he's gonna take off...later he told me it took me so long to pull it together he was wondering if I was gonna shoot it at all.. :chuckle: I think the bear just stayed around to watch because it was so entertaining..All I know is that I GOT MY FIRST BEAR!!!!!!! Already got my tag for my second bear this year.. :chuckle:

now see, we got two great things here, a great story finally, and a bonus is always seein a chic in camo for pics, congrats and hope to see more posts  :tup:

That's an awesome looking rug! What's a ball park figure on the cost to have something like that done?
