First time calling black bears

Called in this chunky sow yesterday afternoon and the wife made a perfect shot at 52 yards with her Remington Model Seven 243. Enjoy

Awesome! Looks like a good one. Glad the thunder storms didn’t keep them all holed up

Thank you, we got this one right before the storm started to kick off.

Beautiful Bear....I'm gonna have to give this calling thing a try.  You mind sharing what sound you used?

Tell you wife congrats on a nice bear.

I'm not convinced the sound is incredibly important, but needs to sound very needy and pleading.   When I'm doing it right I'll raise the hairs on my own neck mouth calling an begging for my life  :chuckle:


the wind is huge with bear, more than yotes even.  They can't even cut your own trail in or its done most of the time

also bears have exceptional hearing, I messed with one for 2 hours trying to get a shot so I was crunching a pine cone with my foot very gently to get him to move some, and man I was impressed how he could hear that so well at 40 yards in a good away breeze  :o

So ya, sneak in silent as a ghost and play the wind!

Obviously fake news.  Bears cant be killed with anything less than a .338 ultrasupermegamagnum

I thought you had to kill them with a stick you sharpened yourself with a rock that you find while in the field? I feel like I've been completely misinformed this whole time.

Did you use one of Rick's calls?
