I wish I could describe the experience better than I did.  From pulling in the driveway to leaving the driveway was amazing.  Great man with a great wife and a lot of knowledge.

Heck, I forgot to mention....  This bear had been shot before.  In the left shoulder there were bullet fragments and a scarred hole in the should blade muscle area.  Luckily their bullet/gun wasnt big enough.  I was shooting my 300WM with 208 grain Amax.  I was a little nervous with that round on what it would do.  I talked with a hunting buddy that uses that on elk all the time and loves them.  I dont really have an input on what I think about their performance since it was a 22 yard shoot with a 300 wm.  I think anything would have done the trick at that range.  The bear was hit, jumped on the ground and dead in 8 yards within 2 seconds.  Very quick and clean kill.
