I got tired of sitting arounh the house and healing my knee so wife and I decided to go to cabin and fill up feeder and watch the wildlife, heres a few pictures, you can tell its a nice one by the head and ears and I figure it will gain about a 100 lbs. before hunting season.
Take a guess on its weight.
Very cool!
One of my goals this year is to take a week off, get my crossbow and head north for a bear. I want a rug for my hunting room, as well as the excitement of the hunt...
That one sure is a beauty!

Not this time but I did a few years ago. I was going to get a better picture, gave my wife my .44 mag. pistol and told her to stay right behind me so i could grab it well she followed me to the end of the porch and i stepped off the porch and walked about 10 yds. took a few pictures and the bear looked up and charged, I reached back to get the gun and she was still on the porch.
Very cool!

David, bear hunting is not for everyone. What happens after the shot is different from deer, turkeys etc.

I'm in central wisconsin and up until just recently we've never really had a big bear population, but that seems to be changing fairly quick, I've been seeing them quite regularly the last few years and have found a few bait setups in the area
I've put in forit but I'venever gotten a tag for one, it takes years to get one here and if you miss a year you go right back to square one so I've never still huntedone but I know a group of guys upin northern wisconsinthat run them with hounds and up until a few years ago I used to go up there every year, its a pretty fun time
Dnk has a point.
The Death Groan...... was out and my friend shot one out of the stand and the death groan gottoome...but now as yrs have passed I would like to go out and try it again......
Dont know if it sounds like that all the time when you take a bear,if it does I beleave alot of peole wouldnt do it.....maybe.....
I still think of that day every time I see a bear hunt or bear in general for the most part.....
