we have been hunting all day and saw prob half dozen legal bucks and dozen doe, so we where hungry and getting ready to head back to the truck , glassed for another 30 mins and started heading back to the truck , made a little de-tour towards a watering whole that i was aware of and came up on it really slow and quiet , and sure enough in the 103 degree temp . there was a bear about 100 yards out and closing on the pond in pure excitment being first bear we both have seen during season we couldnt wait for a better shot , we never discussed who gets to shoot the bear if we see one .... haha so we did the good ol 3-2-1 boom boom , down he went from a shot from each rifle 7mm rem mag and a 300 WM prob lil over kill. but then we got him all taken care of packed him down to the truck , tossed a coin turns out i get the hide and he gets the skull , so im doing a Half life mount , great day great hunt great friends , Great coors light :P
