Default I need your help and advice

Here's the deal guys..

I'm going on my 3rd bear hunt in Quebec this May.

In 2005 & 2006 I busted both bears with my bow on video. Love the bow!

I got 50% off this years bear hunt for making a promotional video of the outfit and my bow kill..... so the guide cut me a deal this year.

Should I go bow again this year?
I really want to end this last bear hunt with a gun because I haven't done it and I don't have a gun harvest on video. I know bow is the real deal but I've been there and done it...I really want to thrash one on video with a gun

Gun or bow guys?

Brian

Over bait, I assume......the only other weapon I would consider shooting a bear over bait would be a ML with open sights.

Its your choice, do what you want......who cares what anyone here thinks.

EDITED: Man I'm a slow typer.
