One big bear
« on: February 15, 2013, 09:06:31 PM »
Went through past photos and found this pic. Saw this bear in the spring that year and caught him on a deer trail in similar area a few weeks later. Never could spot him in the woods during season to date. He was a monster. The area is so thick I can't see a thing now a days.
Maturity is when you have the power to destroy someone who did you wrong but instead you breathe, walk away, and let life take care of them.

I went out a lot. 17 days in August the year before not including the other months. Did not get a bear. Did not see a bear during the season before that. That season I took two bears, but did not see that bear. He's been a ghost since. In the spring prior to that pic I trailed that bear for a few hundred yards and saw him at 35 yards. He was a minimum of 400 lbs in the spring. Beast.

If you can't play with the big dogs then STAY on the porch.

Big bear!! get that way from eating lots of baked goods and dog food.
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

He wasn't near any dumpsters. He was way up a ridge away from any civilization.
