Title: Re: First bear
Post by: T-ROY on August 04, 2008, 03:56:12 PM: we were glassing a clear cut looking for a couple hundred pounder we had been seeing and this fella jumped up on a stump below us for a look around. we tried to get situated for a shot and he hopped back down. it was a 20 minute game of hide and seek before he stepped out into the open for a clear shot. one shot behind the front shoulder and it was over, he's shooting a remington 788 in .243.

Proof that shot placement is 90%... Well done to him.
