If the bear was broad side and a 219 yard shot, dead bear :bfg: You made a good call if the shot didn't feel right

I don't see the difference between thebear in the tree or me in a tree stand.  Either way one is higher than the other so I would defiantly take the shot if it was a good bear.
Of all the branches of men in the forces there is none which shows more devotion and faces grimmer perils than the submariners."

I would shoot a bear in a tree, on a rock, or a stump. I would even shoot one if it jumped. I would shoot one in the dirt, or on some grass, I would shoot it in the side or in the A$$. I would shoot it if it was brown and even a little round. I would shoot it if it was white as long as it put up a lil fight. I would shoot it if it was black, I would shoot it laying on my back.

Bottom line shoot the fricken thing if it is legal.

There are some things that are ethical some things are not. A bear being in a tree to me is very ethical, it is what they do, they go in trees.

Hmm? Stationary target, sitting still?  The chance to aim very carefully, taking your time to put the shot exactly where it should go...?

What's wrong with that?

I disremember this one time (at band camp) when a similar question was asked about a sleeping elk in his bed...(this was in an archery magazine)....

Bottom line, if a wild animal is stupid enough to let ME get that close to it, I consider it gene pool cleansing.  This is an animal that shouldn't be breeding.
Of sorrow and sickness I've known on my way,
But I'm old and I'm nervis,
I'm cast from the Service,
And all I deserve is a shillin' a day.
