Title: Our First Bear
Post by: Maymobilemarine on November 13, 2007, 08:36:08 AM: Me and My boys used to hunt Bear all the time and never see them. Well they have grown up and Moved out so it was the wife and I out scouting for late season muzzleloader season and we see this big boy out at about 187 yards and guess what? I did not have my rifle with me, so we watched for about 35 min. and moved out. We went back the next night hoping to get him. We walk down the road and yep we kicked him out of the thicket and I shot him at 145 yards and he died 30 yards 1 shot in the chest. We are making a rug and yes the wife wants it in the living room. That was a great hunt.
