Yessir! Now that's a nice un'! I'd travel way up where it's cold     to shoot a big ol fathead like that! Way to go! CK

Nice bear! Congrats even if its a little late!

   

Nice bear, nice trad bow, wood arrows, does it get any better?

WOW thats sweet, How'd I miss that story??

Yup, the circumstances in getting the shot on that bear were incredible.  I spotted that bear out in the middle of a tide flat mid-day and thought "there's no way you could sneek up on him"  So I told Chris "you go  chase that bear, I'm gonna see if I can find a steelhead in this stream"  The whole time I was thinking, "yeah whatever, that thing will spook before he get's within 100yds"  Next think I know he's 10yds from this bear with his string pulled back so far he must have been anchoring behind his ear!  Wham!  Ran 60-70yds and died in the open!!!  

A great hunt, I'll always remember it.

Now THAT is a BEAR!!! Congrats. Well Done.
