black bear punishment
Hey guys do you have any ideas for me bears seem hard to put down. Last year a stalked a bear up to around 200 yards and took a broadside shot with my 30-06 After I shot I knew it might be trouble finding it, my first shot hit the ribs but to far back. But I followed the blood trail and the bear took 4 other shots to put him down.2 out 4 shots hit him threw the chest but the other two were too far back. Is it normal for black bears to take that much firepower before dieing?
