I skipped the story & went straight to the pics then saw the 1911 laying next to a dead bear thinking it was a follow up. Wow that was a cool story. Congrats man

Great write up high country, its amazing how fast your fight or flight instinct kicks in as I have killed one that close as well.  :brew:

Awesome bear.  :llam:

I just checked and you won the internet today! What a great animal, cool shot with a handgun, and all with your family there. You have much reason to be a proud papa!  :tup:
