For some, I'm sure it's the excitement of actually getting the opportunity to take a bear--no matter the size. It takes more time to locate and take a bear than it does a deer, and many people will only get a handful of opportunities in their lifetime.For others, I'm sure much of it has to do with the ability to accurately judge the size of a bear before the shot.Beyond that, some would rather not pass up a unique color variant...no matter the size.
so i ahve yet to shoot a bear, so why would i want to hold out on the first bear i see (female with cubs and cubs i will not) also with 2 tag hit a small one then go for the trophy. also prove your worth to a useless comment.
I don't care what other people shoot as long as it's legal, appreciated and used....besides we all have to start somewhere and there are plenty out there.
I'm not trying to call anyone out or anything I just see some small bears being posted, and I was just wandering if anyone else out there tries to only kill mature bears. I know people want to get a bear but are there any standards for anyone. Does anyone else pass on small bears or am I nuts. Just a question not trying to be rude?
Here ya GRK

Nice hide on it.I like my bucks and bulls way better than bear, kill any and all that are legally taken...That was the brother that shot that one, he was 135pds Andy and I were not there to help him exercise some trigger control. Lucky for him I am always there to through them on my back and take them to the truck for him. I need to find someone bigger than me to the same might be hard at 6'5" 245 though. BTW I love that bear your pard got, thats what Andy and I are looking for.
