Congratulations!  Gorgeous bear, awesome photos.

As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Congrats on a great bear with a bow!  I'm hoping to get my first archery bruin this spring as well.

And sorry haters...while you were typing your doubts, I was knee deep in bear guts and bad-assery.  :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

Oh, I know man, I was just dishing it back to you guys. :D

Amazing hunt Decker.  It was fun to get the kids in the woods and let them see a beautiful harvest.  Even the pack out wasn't too bad.

Having never laid hands on a Spring bear, two things really stood out.  The hair quality is amazing compared to fall bears.  I couldn't believe how little fat is on a Spring Bear as well.

Nicely done sir!  I've only spent about an hour total today suffering the inter-webs but I would like to nominate you for best comment of the day for sure - it's like a General Patton t-shirt worthy quote!
