I screwed up tonight!
« on: April 30, 2011, 09:58:26 PM »
 :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash:  So I missed a decent bear tonight.  I came down a clearcut there it was looking right at me.  I shot as it took off running hit a stump next to him.  About 80 yards away.  I think I missed only by inches.  Not good enough.   :bash:  Atleast it was a clean miss.

This was from me (Buckmark), whoops.
Lady Buckmark thinks bears just want to play and need a hug, she always wants to take them home to live in the backyard.. :chuckle:
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.
