You should be able to find sow/cub scat not far from each other unless the area is thick

So you're calling adjacent to thick reprod and a bear comes charging out of the timber 40 yards from you, you have the ability to positively ID it as a sow in the 5-7 seconds you have to make your shot? I'm definitely not that good at identifying sex on bears.
I hunt, therefore I am.... I fish, therefore I lie.
