RE: What Cal. for Alaskan Brown Bears
I seen the best hunting video I've ever seen a couple of weeks ago. It was on OLN I believe. There's this guy who's hunting brownies with a recurve bow. I think its the guy that has Easton's world of bowhunting but I'm not sure. Anyway, They stalk up on this brownie, the bear has no idea he's there. so he nocks an arrow and lets it fly, but he misses. the bear takes a couple of steps and stops. So another arrow is nocked and loused. This time he hits but the bear knows where hes at. The brownie woofs and starts charging the hunter.
At this point the camera man has had enough. He takes off and drops the camera while its still rolling film. You see sky, trees, ground, sky, trees ground etc. Then it come to rest pointing in the grass. But you can still hear the audio. YOu hear the hunter yell: "no!" then Boom, Boom! Then it the guide say: "I had too!" Then it cuts. I guess they get the cameraman back and are talking about what happened. They claim the bear charged to within 10 feet when the guide pops him with the backup rifle. The hunter is all upset because now he can't enter the bear in Pope and Young. Anyway I was pumped and on the edge of my seat, then I started laughing thinking of the cameraman. What he must have been thinking: "screw this i'm OUTA HERE!" still makes me laugh!
