If you blow it up is sure looks like a bear, but with being a day apart it is most likely a log.    :tup:

Even the Idaho guys get tricked by the stump bears.

Congrats, flyfishWA!
Thanks for sharing and way to go not shooting a stump bear.


 :yeah:  I know someone that put a full magazine into one, and it still didn't go down.   :chuckle: :chuckle:

Wow talk about knowing your target.

That had to be exciting, Bango!

Way to get it done.

What caliber lever gun, just out of curiosity?
