Well I have finally arrived home to post some photos of my first Bear ever. I figured everyone would be waiting for these so I fig'd I'd do it before I go to bed. Well Justin explained everything exactly like it happened. He probably just told it better than I would have, so I'd have to say thanks to him. Yeah, that was a dandy bear we seen last week. He came blame it on the camera all he wants but regardless, I still missed. I ranged it at about 125 yards the next time I went up there, I was sighted in for 200. That friggin sucked
But really that was the second biggie I seen. The first one I couldn't get a shot off at...tried to sneek my fat ass up on him, but that wasn't happenin.....he bolted out of there. Those both could of been 300 pounders or close to it. Oh well, so then I waited a few days for my return to the hills and then yesterday happened, just like justin said. I can't believe out of all the people I about run off the road....it was him. Now thats freakin crazy. Well here is a few photos for your enjoyment. Good luck to all the hunters out there. And I have to thank everyone for all there help. Justin/Jeremy..You guys are awesome. I was a blast and one I'll never forget, and of course my other buddy that was with me when we got him. His first exerience with hunting. I think I've turned him into a hunter now. Oh yeah, here is a better photo of justin girlfriend with the bear on her birthday...how cool is that.
