No doubt, Lot of courage not to shoot him on the spot. RESPECT.

RE: Cool Vid Clip
 

Wow, Don't know if I would have shot into the water.

By this do you mean, you'd shoot in the air, or shoot the bear. It would be real hard for me not to put a round (or as many as it takes) in her.

Ummm, I'm about 93% positive a turd just rocketed through my pants when i watched that. Its kind of like watchinga bunch of fat cheerleaders attempt to do a routine, even though you're not in their routine you still feel embarassed FOR them. Well, in this case I was scared for that guy. :D

RE: Cool Vid Clip
 

I meant in her. They're lucky she stopped her charge.

I agree, could have been a bad day for Fred.

Yep I know my butt just puckered up!! [:@]

RE: Cool Vid Clip
 

Wow!!! I don't think that I would have shot in the water though.;)

RE: Cool Vid Clip
 

Either, the (who I assume to be) the guide, had a lot of balls, or he has been in that situation before and knew it would be effective. I think both came into play.

RE: Cool Vid Clip
 

Wow. That was insane...

It may have been a good thing though that he didn't shot the bear....it may have angered the bear even more and then the bear may have followed through with the attack. By shooting into the water, it just scared the bear away. I would have definitely needed to change my pants after that if I was in that boat!

RE: Cool Vid Clip
 

Holy Crap!

RE: Cool Vid Clip
 

Thats incredible. Don't think I would be carrying a revolver out there either, need a semi.:D

RE: Cool Vid Clip
 

my thoughts exactly!!

RE: Cool Vid Clip
 

WOW...that is intense....and some amazing video footage they have..

RE: Cool Vid Clip
 

I think the reasoning for shooting into the water was to scare the bear enough to stop its charge.. the loud noise accompanied by the people in the boat pry were enough to stop the bear.. think of the flipside, if he would have shot the bear, that bear would not have instantly dropped, and now the bear is in survival mode and will fight to its death.. The smart choice was probably to scare it away, not shoot it and piss it off even more..

I saw that show and afterwards the guide said he was glad she turned after he shot in the water because he really didn't want to shoot her. There were 2 or 3 cubs with her which is why she charged. He was an experienced guide and if he would have shot her I do not think she would have lived. The gun he had was specifically for this reason so I am sure, in his hands, it would have been effective.

I think i would have soiled my drawers...
I had a black bear sow charge me once like that w/ her cubs treed... not very pleasant.
Lucky they got off that easy!

RE: Cool Vid Clip
 

Great video. No, if you will excuse me, I think I will go change.

Bruce, I fixed your post for ya..

My wife's cousin was once a hunting guide's helper (did the crap work) in the Yaha Tinda and took out clients for elk and there were rare occasions where clients shot Grizzlies without tags for whatever reason.. Anyhow, apparently they don't slow down much from a rifle and have a good few minutes of adrenalin and fury to do what they do best.. Nothing ever happened to a client but he's seen enough angry wounded grizzlies to not want to shoot them. Period.. He reccommends bear spray or the fetal position.

I also know a mountie who responded to a nuissance grizzlie a few years back in Southern BC.. He was helping the Conservation officers trap the bear and the officers warned him that if things go south an the bear charges, he should just shoot himself in the head with his shot gun, that way it will be painless. Obviously he was kidding (may even have had a recent ticket) but there is some truth to that comment..

The guide shooting in the water only demonstrates his vast experience whichand it saved the day.
