Spring Bear Tag Filled
« on: May 27, 2014, 08:19:03 AM »
Here is my Spring Bear from this year.  The bears finally started to move good this weekend in the area I was hunting.  I was able to get within 70 yards of this guy and decided he was worthy of the tag.  Had a lot of fun and can't wait to get after it again.

Right on. Congrats man, that's a great looking bear.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Great looking bear  :tup: The one I shot had a buddy just like that one feeding in a clear cut but the black one was a little bigger so I shot her, but I did like the blond one though. Congrats again.

Beautiful bear. Well done sir!!
It is hard to follow one great vision in a world of darkness and of many changing shadows. Among these shadows men get lost.
