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.
Maturity is when you have the power to destroy someone who did you wrong but instead you breathe, walk away, and let life take care of them.

That had to be exciting, Bango!

Way to get it done.

What caliber lever gun, just out of curiosity?
