Default Booked a bear hunt with a bow, question?

Well.. some of you might remember my question about hunting buffalo (bison) with a bow on a "ranch".. I guess I just couldn't bring myself to do it, even with a buffalo..

Instead.... Today I booked an affordable hunt for black bear near Ontario Canada. After I shoot my fall bear I get to go fishing..

Anyway, I shoot a Mathews Outback with 400spine Axis arrows at 64lbs with a 28inch draw length..
Not sure on what broadhead to use yet but I have strikers and montec's.

Question is... Is this enough to kill a blackbear without any issue.. Works great on Whitetail but I've never bow hunted bear before..

Anyone have experience with this?
