   OK so here is the story. The alarm went off at 4am and I really didn't want to get up but I did knowing possibly this could be the day. I hunted an area and didn't see much sign so I went to a hole different area of the unit not knowing what to expect. I drove probably 4 or 5 miles before I decided to get the boots out and start walking. I was walking not even 5 minutes before finding fresh sign. I came up to a Y in the road and went left and thankgod I did. I walked 20 yards around the corner and could see some movement way up the old road. I saw it was a bear and ranged it at first at 193yds.  The bear was walking away from me so I knew I didn't have much time. After looking at him for about 20-30 seconds and didn't see any cubs all I could do is just wait for him to turn while my cross hairs were on him. Then a few seconds later he turned quartering away and aimed behind the front shoulder and let one out. He lurched down and ran maybe 30ft. then rolled off the road down a steep embankment 20 yards to were he piled up. It sucked butt trying to pull him out of there but I did it by myself.And I didn't have a camera with me up there so I had to wait until I got home to take pics of him with the wife and kids. I'm not good at guessing weight of bears but my guess is that he would be around 200lbs. What an exciting way to fill my spring bear tag. Its been four years of putting in for it and now I cant wait until I can draw it again. Sorry for such a long write but I am just super pumped about what just happened.
