Congrats on the bear and having the boys with you. Ten feet! Bet you didn't need your Leica's for that one.

Dude, you must have a couple of good spots. You are always finding bears.
I don't know how you do it. I'm out all the time and hardly ever see anything.

Corey, this is actually the first bear that Ive killed since fall of 08, last year just didnt have time, this year backpacked in to early in August didnt see anything, and this bear I hit it just right, but definetly do get lucky as well!!! You need to come over here and get up with your brother and hunt in some of the areas he has access to, you should be able to find some pigs up there!!
