2013 father-son bear hunt
« on: September 04, 2013, 05:07:40 AM »
An all-too-brief, but really good hunt with my youngest son. He did well, making a fine 320 yard first shot with his .30-06,



Thanks for all the help Shane! It was a great little hunt that we'll remember. The meat is being made into sausage, and that chocolate hide is heading for the taxidermist today.

Good looking bear.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

Yeah, Shane is a texting monster when he gets cell service up there in the hills. It's pretty funny. He sure knows those bears though. Dang... 

Thanks all, it was a really good hunt, and I'm happy as all get out that my son got another good bear.

Regards, Guy

Wow, what a brute. Is there any more to the story? What part of the state where you in?
