First Bear
« on: October 31, 2008, 11:09:55 PM »
So I got my first bear!! Was chasing some deer and there she was sitting on a stump back to me at 150 yards. I was so jacked!! Not a big one (looked way bigger sitting on its butt) but was kinda chocolate colored so that was super cool.

Congrats on your bear. I had a 20 yard archery shot at a bear but passed thinking he was to small. I have not taken a bear and wish I would of taken him now. I had not seen many bears in the wild and assumed they would be huge. How much did yours weigh ? The one I saw was over a hundred I would guess but not by much. I watched him for 45 minutes, very exciting. He saw my montana elk decoy and arched up like a cat and hopped around huffing at it. Good job and congrats again. Mike

I would say 120. They look real small after you gut them. They lose all that round. Gut pile was half the size of the bear. Looked way bigger when I shot at it. I've seen about 12 over the last 5 years and down around sw washington they all have been about the same size.
