Hopefully your bear hunting prowess is akin to your shift button skill.

I have a couple cams you can use sled just let me know when you want to set them up.
  Id Like To, But I Would Feel Bad If They Ended Up Getting Stolen.  I Might Try To Pick Up A Couple This Weekend.  I Wonder If Cabelas Still Has The Bushnell 2 Pack.

I'll be out in the Monroe this weekend, silver tacoma black canopy. I will probably take my 3yr old out with me one of these times but not this weekend. She really wants to come with but I'm certainly not taking with if I have to track a wounded one. Do we have a call list for packouts / tracking help?
  I'll Pm You My Number.  Anyone Else Want To Exchange Numbers IM In To Help out :tup:

I'm using them for me as much as I am you.  Just don't want to walk my lazy butt in when I can hitch a ride :chuckle:

  Tonight I Went From An All Time High To About As Low As You Can Get!  I Shot A Good Bear At 5:00 Pm.  Called Turner89 And Him And His Son Came Out To Help Out.  Thank You Very Much Guys!    My Shot Was 200 Yards QuarTering Away.  The Bear Stood Up On It's Back Legs And Went Over Backwards, Kicked A Few Times, Then Got Up And Disappeared Into The Tree Line.  An Hour Later We Went In. About 40 Yards Into The Trees His Son Picked Up The Blood Trail.  The Blood Color Ranged From Bright Red With No Bubbles To A Darker Red Then Almost A Black Color toward The End.  The Trail Took Us Somewhere Around 300 Yards.  One Spot We Found ASmall Chunk Of Meat.tThe Trail Ended UpAbout 50 Yards In The Timber From Where I Shot Comming BacK Up The Hill.  There Was Blood Spots Ranging From The Size Of Two Palms Flat To Drops.  One Place It Crossed A Log Over A Small Swamp That Had Blood All The Way Across It.  About 15 Yards Long.  The Blood Trail Ran Thin When It Got Dark.  IM Heading Back Out With My Brother In Law At 5 Am To Search.  Any Thoughts On How The Meat Will Be If I Find Him In The Morning.
  THIS SUCKS BAD!

Sounds like a liver hit. Sucker is taking you in to the swamp. He's gonna look for something tangled and nasty to die in.

  Yeah.  He Went Into And Headed Back Out Of The Swamp.  The Thing That Concerns Me The Most Is How Far He Went.  I Didn't Think A Hard Hit Bear Would Go That Far Which Is Making Me Question My Shot.  I Took The Long Shot Because IM Good For It.  Spent Alot Of Time At The Range Shooting 225.

 :they are toughest animal in my IMOP seen them go a long ways being shot.

Don't give chase in the dark ever, they will lay in wait for you, then when find them they will attack you if they haven't died.

Good luck in the morning!  Meat should still be good, at least the big cuts. Sounds like a liver hit to me as well.
