3 Bears, 2 hours, 1 down
 
Well, its the first day of bear season up here in Ontario. I have been baiting for the last couple of weeks in preparation and its been great so far. My first three hunters arrived yesterday to do a little pre-hunt fishing and caught a bunch of walleyes and pike.

This morning started out rainy, not looking good. About 1:00pm it started clearing up, looking better. I got the guys out a little later than I like, mainly because of the weather.

Well, Jim Goettl of Hayward WI, got on stand at 3:45. At 4:15 the first bear showed up. Nice bear around 6', but didn't offer a shot. The next bear showed up at 4:50, around 200 lbs, not big enough. The last bear showed up at 5:40.......14 yrds, perfect quartering away, double lung. He ended up running 50 yrds and giving 3 death moans.

Afterlooking him over he ended up weighing around 350 and has a skull about 20".

Not bad for 2 hours.....EH?

VERY awesome!!! A bear hunt is way up there tops on one of my upcoming hunts I want to do soon... A fellow Bowtech Pro Staffer and I have been talking about it quite a bit here lately.

What do you think that one will square?
