Nice job Bentley .  Why were you hesitant about shooting another bear?

[bentley30-06]

I was hesitant in the past because i was not a huge fan of bear meat until my friend had me over and gave me some a few weeks back and I was hooked.  Been craving bear burgers since.  I also adopted the mindset that I need to do some predator control and do my part to save some deer and elk.  If you don't or have not witnessed what coyotes cats and bears  do to fawns and elk then you don't consider them another threat to the population.  But I have seen them in action and there needs to be some control.

Fully agree, but at the same time wild animals are suppose to eat deer and elk, their wild animals that's what they do. If we had to live in the wilderness year round we would eat alot of deer, elk to survive as well. You are correct in that it is our job to control ALL animals though as God has givin us domain over ALL creatures of the earth.

Got this boar down in 448 Friday afternoon. I had not seen anything all morning despite seeing bears on every previous trip out to this spot. At about noon he popped up in the reprod behind me right as I was getting ready to head back to the truck. (Was about 4.5 mi behind gate). One shot from 100 yards from my .300 win mag to his shoulder rolled him and he expired in less then a minute. Had to go in with machetes to get him out of the waist high brush.  Taxidermist had a tough time aging him because he was not very large (200-250 live) but had no top teeth left and has some grey hairs on his coat. He guessed around 4 years old. Special thanks to my father (rickomatic) and my buddy Todd for helping get him out. There still is a much larger boar I've glassed up twice in  the same cut. Maybe I can connect with him on round two...

Hoytem is even rocking earplugs!  Im just not smart enough to carry thise with me when im hunting.  Ill wear them 24/7 for 2 months straight while im working, then deafen myself with a rifle shot in the fall.  I think a lot of us can take a que from this guy.

[hoytem]

Haha. I saw a guy last year late buck with them around his neck and thought it was a good idea. It was definitely worth it afterwards.

Here is my 2015 bear.  I was hunting with Bearpaw Outfitters and they are topnotch when it comes to a hunting camp and hospitality.  I shot this bear at 30 yards with my 6.5 creedmoor, one shot dropped it in its tracks.
