That's really cool Bronko. I agree, bear encounters are the highlights of my hunting seasons. I could sit and watch them for hours. We have some we have been catching on camera this year. Young bear are especially fun to watch.
People say I'm crazy as well for huntin' them with a bow. I have a 300lb sow on my wall that was killed with a bow and I didn't feel the least bit worried about it. Black bear aren't the same as brown bear in regards to their aggressiveness.
