well no luck, its dark as dark gets, my son was having a cougar heart attack, 2 flashlights took a crap almost immediately, and it was pissing rain,  it just got too ugly and dangerous out there, we advised better to be back at daylight, so were headed to bed and we will be back there in 6 hrs. sounds like the bear turned at the last second and was quartered away and may, may not have gotten a lung shot but did hit the dirt then get up and haul a$$ so hopefully we can find him come light, sounds like he was a good size bear  :tup:

Best of luck to you guys, it's going to be challenging since it's been pissing rain all night, but it can certainly be done. I wish I could come down and help but I'm at work in Everett. I will be rooting for you though. I'm looking forward to some pic's later on today.

Best of luck finding the bear.  It is good to see people putting the effort into finding it.

Seriously????  You too?????    What is up with you guys and magnumitis...    :nono: :nono: :nono: :nono: :nono: :nono:

I would put a curse on your gun, but I can not do that to a fine piece of work like a .338 WM...  :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.
