Daughter's bear!
« on: August 06, 2022, 04:19:01 PM »
My oldest daughter has hunted everyday of the season with me so far and she got it done this morning.  We were watching a small bear low in the cut first thing this morning that was getting a pass then all of a sudden it takes off running and I kinda knew a bigger bear was somewhere close.  Bigger bear popped out about 100 yards above the smaller bear.  We set up 3 times on this bear trying to decide if we were going to shoot it.  At one point it was under 50 yards from us but we couldn't get a good look or shot.  It finally climbed up on a stump at 150 yards and I gave her the go ahead if she wanted to take the shot.  She touched one off out of her new Browning xbolt in 7mm08 and bear "didn't go twenty"

High fives young lady!
It is foolish and wrong to mourn these men.  Rather, we should thank god that such men lived.  -General George S. Patton

Fantastic!
