Westside Multi-Color Bear Down

[tlbradford]

Great tracking job.  I never knew that a severly wounded bear would head downhill.  Thanks for that nugget of wisdom.  Good work, and it looks like 50cal has banked a lot of points.  He'll probably save it for humping out a huge elk through a fire cut or something just as fun.

It is scary going after them in the brush huh?! I love it!

Grats on the bear and putting forth the effort. Good story and pics! Getting a rug, mount, etc?

saylean, I'm getting a shoulder mount, it will show all three colors (black, brown, and white patch) and still fit the current budget.

Congrats - great story.  I think even approaching one you can see can be a little pulse quickening.

Nice Job 300.....way to follow through...and smart thing getting some help on that one......that one will look great as a shoulder mount.

3 1/2 for tracking time  you should have told 50cal to bring his golden retriever  Anywho good bear and nice color phase and what unit did you get it in?

We could have used a "MasterTracker".

I am going to start carrying a call with me from now on. I've never used predator calls before but I think that would have made a huge difference because I could have made the bear stop moving, and he was still moving at a good pace when I shot. If any of you "callers" have any suggestions for a good small all-around call for a beginner please let me know.

Awesome bear.  The hard work always adds to the experience and makes it that much more rewarding.  Congrats.

I received the shoulder mount back from the taxi today, here are some photos.

Nice Job!  I have really seen some screwed up bear head mounts, but that one really looks great!  Congrats.
