Great looking bear! Story?

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.
Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

We were both sitting on the same clear cut which was fairly large about 450 yards long by two hundred yards deep. He had left for a walk about while I stayed put when the bear showed up walking down a log on the far side of the unit. I had a rushed shot and passed hoping he would reappear which he did a hundred yards down the unit almost directly below me about two hundred yard's. I failed to compensate for the steep angle and shot over his back. The bear just kept on walking as if nothing happened.at my shot my buddy came running back to where I was and saw the bear once again but this time there wasn't a miss and he dropped him in his tracks. Both of us had never gotten a bear so it was a very exciting moment. This is about half of the unit. The bear was about twenty yards off the tree line right in front
