Blues Bear Down
« on: September 01, 2009, 08:08:02 PM »
Shot this one this morning in the Blue Creek unit, nice fat sow probably pushing 250, has a really neat heart shaped white patch on her chest.  Thinking of getting a 1/2 mount to show off the markings.  If I can talk my momma bear into it. :chuckle:

Not much of a story I was up in a big canyon off Lewis Peak at about 4200' spotted her first thing in the morning coming up out of the creek bottom.  I had been thinking about some conversations on here about shot placement and decided to try the right behind the head shot, I have to say I am a believer, she never took a step.  She was still alive when I got to her so I finished her with my .44, much easier than tracking her through the thick stuff with no blood trail like I've seen before.  I have never seen an animal with as much back fat as this bear, she literally had 2.5-3" in spots.  Still working on the old lady to let me mount her ( just realized that sounded really bad. :chuckle:)
