Decent Bear Down!

[D-Rock425]

Yeah I would have been a savage fighting that bear with a knife.

The story would have been written by the bear on the "Hunted Washington" website... thread titled "Two Decent Hunters Down!"   

Nice bear, Stang.  And chasing it into Devils Club with 5' of visilbility after dark?  How do you guys even walk with that much brass hanging??

Kind of like a bowlegged cowboy. 

D-Rock and I are unfortunately becoming quite proficient at tracking bears in the crap in the dark.  That being said, don't call us if you get one in a similar situation.  It is like a real life haunted house.  The adrenaline rush is ridiculous.

[D-Rock425]

Id do it again.  What are you doing next weekend?

[D-Rock425]

One of these days we should try shooting on in the morning so we could pack it out in daylight hours.

nice ...love those pictures where no one wants to show their mug ...

[D-Rock425]

He's wanted by the FBI

Nice bear

Yeah....show the mug....pretty boy.

Either way to get impressed with any brass....the phone call I got while he was waiting for D to show up was pretty comical...."oh its dark and scary......oh when is D going to get here.....oh i think I hear something......"

Good thing he showed up or he may have chickened out.

I did stop by after soccer on Saturday to check out head and hide....impressize.....the pics he posted simply do not do it justice.

I can verify that all of this is true.  The noises I heard were the bear, yet to expire.  The decision was between dying alone or having D-Rock there to carry my body out.  I chose to wait.  I did hear things, it was a dying bear, it was getting dark, and it was in a jungle of devils club.  I was 100% chicken. 

For his small stature, D-Rock does a lot to bolster self esteem and perceived manliness.  His .40 auto also helped in that department.

[h20hunter]

I sure wouldn't have gone in alone. Agree 100% on having D there to at least blood trail and retrieve the body, excellent point that I had not considered.

[D-Rock425]

I've been packing bears since I was 5 years old ain't found one that scared me yet.  Such a rush in the dark wouldn't have it any other way.  Tuff tuff animals.

This may be my new signature.  LOL

You guys are nuts! I'd poop my pants tracking a bear into a jungle like that!

That's one nice bear too

[Ripper]

You guy's should hunt with me sometime. I shoot mine between 8:00am-4:00pm and pull them out with a rope. Piece of cake!
