Got in the stand monday morning by 6:15am. Had a mom and three cubs come past my stand by 6:45. About 10 minutes later had a monster coyote running around. Froze my ass off, wind was shitty. Could have sworn i heard a deer grunting. By 10am the wind was out of control almost got out of the tree but decided to stay bc we always had bears on the cams at 1pm. Sure enough 1:15pm, i see a this bear dart across the swamp in front of me. Soon enough it came within 15 yards almost completely broadside but walking. Gave a little brrr. It stopped i shot, when i shot the bear grawled and tried to grab at the arrow, fell to the ground and ran about 30-40 yards and dropped.

Good job kid. We need to cull the bears. They are taking too many deer fawns. The meat will be outstanding as well.

Nice! I would bear hunt, but its all 2-3 hrs from me. I want to make a bear claw hatband or something [ko]

We thought it was a young bear, until we got to the check in station. The "bear dentist" said it was a runt bear that was a few years old, thats why the paws were bigger than usual and the K9 teeth were huge.

That's actually quite interesting considering bears are the top predators and normally have first dibs on whatever to eat, so to see or hear of a runt bear is intriguing.

Only way I'd shoot a bear is if it fit in a shop rite bag.
500 lb bear, 6 people 10 hours to move 40feet....eff that!! [rofl]

With all the "big bear" talk going on, it's nice to see someone who cares about the hunt and not the size. Congratulations.
