2nd Bear Down
« on: August 09, 2011, 12:10:04 AM »
This is my second bear of the year. Not the biggest bear, but it fulfilled my goal of notching both tags :). Now I'm going to help my dad get a couple. So far this year I have seen 6 bears.

First picture is of tonight's bear and the second picture is the first bear.

Looks like fun.  Still looking for that big one.  Passed on a few smaller ones.  Next year remember to hold out on your second bear for a big old one.   :tup:

Depends on what you concentrate on. One of my best friends, has shot one buck, and one bull, and 11 or 12 bears, in the last 8 years. Personally, I've seen more cougars than bears in the woods. I don't know why they elude me so much.
