Title: First Bear
Post by: duramax588 on August 22, 2017, 01:59:37 PM: Shot my first bear on Sunday, not much to the story except it happens fast. My buddy was walking ahead of me on a trail and came face to face with this guy at 10ft. The bear ran off and we both went that direction I was about 50yds behind him and the bear came my direction, 20yd shot he went 30yds. Not a big bear but the taxidermist said he was an average boar

Story doesn't have to be for the record books but it doesn't have to end with the pic. I won't have time for trying to fill my tag till October so I live off of these success stories.

Post by: Ripper on August 23, 2017, 07:46:01 AM: :tup: Nice job! That will be a good eater. I love bear meat and get asked all of the time what I do with it. I dont turn it into sausage or anything, I personally think that is a waste of delicious meat. I turn most into hamburger and make a few roasts. Since it has to be cooked well done, I don't make steaks. If I want sausage then I use deer meat for that. I think bear meat is better than deer. Anyway, congrats on a fine boar.
