  I Went Back To The Spot I Shot The Bear Tonight To Check My Trail Camera.  Been Up Since Sunday Afternoon And Had No Pics.  I Then Went ToA Spot Near The Last Blood To Listen And Look For Birds And Heard Nothing.  I'll Check The Camera Later This week.

Back in the baiting days I remember one of my dads buddies shooting a bear with a bow and never recovering it that anothe buddy shooting the same bear weeks later on a different bait 2miles up the road arrow still in it from the first shot.

Bears is alive-same thing for my buddy shot a bear with his bow. Bear comes back to the same bait a week later and he shoots it again. Helped him get it out and the arrow was still in the bear and had punctured one lung. Go kill another bear you have done way more than a lot of guys do in recovery. or kill the same one!

DRock is really good at finding wounded bears... I'm really good at making them.

For the reasons you've just identified, I now hunt bears with a .375 H&H.  They're tougher than elk from what I've seen.

I went up to 300wsm 180gr tsx after i wounded on with 308 150gr fusions. I'm hoping my spring bear will die quick except if it decides to crawl to the truck before expiring.

At least I dont hunt them with a dinky women's gun like you do.

Its because you're afraid.  This August I'm going to arrow one.

Some of us just choose to not hunt with an ASSAULT RIFLE. Some of us can get it done with a piddly lil 'ol .270.

.375 is an elephant gun, not an assault rifle, however I do know that assault rifles are somewhat effective.  You'll have your time where you don't walk up and see bears lounging in the sun at 20 yards and make a shot that slightly more difficult or have a bear thats a little tougher than the wimps you've been messing with.

Your time will come.
