Finally bear down.
« on: August 24, 2015, 07:08:04 AM »
After 3 weeks of hunting and a miss or two :bash: I finally punched a tag yesterday morning.  Not a big bear at all but my burger supply is running low.  Took a shot about 100yds high shoulder came out about 3 or 4 ribs back.  Bear just dropped and rolled down the hill.

A little guy who is 10 ft back sure makes a bear look big.

To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.
