NE corner boar down!!!
« on: May 06, 2013, 06:18:05 PM »
Got this guy last night around 6:30. Walking an old logging road at the bottom of a cut by a creek. Rounded a corner and he was 50 in front of he head down feeding away. Got broadside and let the 270 wsm sing. First shot he hunched up and spun a 180 and the second shot dropped him before he took another step.  Very happy times

Looks like a little tike in the last picture. Really nice coat and had a half Y on his chest in white.

Only had to pack him around 400 yards to the truck but it was a flat grade which was a nice change of pace for getting a bear out of the woods.

Wow!....Wow!!...Umm Wow!!!   That is one outstanding spring bear.  I've never had a bear full mounted.  That would be changing if I had shot that bear.  Wow!!!!
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."
