Not really. My bears (one in CO and one in BC) both came pretty easily and there really wasn't much to tell. Saw them and shot them. Each only took a single round and went all wobble legged and tipped over in a big hairy heap. Wish I had some hair raising tale to tell about tracking a wounded one down in heavy cover and dropping it in full charge or about hunting for days on end to find one to take, but that would be a fabrication.

Kind of like my biggest bull elk. I was hunting for meat and ran into a really big bull. One shot from my 7mm Mag and down he went, less than 150 yards from the truck. Never discount the power of luck!
