Bear or whitetail, It don't matter. Use the same setup you do for whitetails.

You should be good to go as far as weight is concerned. I like to shot as big a cut as I can when going after Bears. A good Blood Trail can be important although most Bears will go down quicker with a Good Hit than a Whitetail.
