2012 bear, fun hunt.
« on: February 13, 2013, 08:51:44 PM »
Well, last year I saw over 15 bear and I ended up shooting this one. Not my biggest bear at all but by far the prettiest. This is my 4th bear shooting my first when I was 12. But anyways I glassed this one from well over 1000 yards, from there I made the journey across a couple draws to shoot it at 75 yards. I was kind of bumbed though because I wanted to shoot it with my .41 mag pistol but I left it home that day. Oh well, another one down and more meat in the freezer!

Congrats on a beautiful bear.  My best coloring on a bear was way smaller than most of the ones I have shot and had the most ground shrinkage, maybe because of coloring.  Way to get it done!  :tup: :tup:
