Default first bear hunt

I have a chance to go to Canada in the spring for a first crack at bear hunting. The following is my current set up for Whitetail and I am interested in any suggestions as to what to change (other than the bow itself) for bear:

-Hoyt Defiant with xt 2000 limbs and set at 65lb draw weight
-30 inch draw
-carbon express 300 arrows
-100 grain muzzy 4 blade broadheads (also use Rocky Mountain expandables but don' t intend to use them on bear)

Specifically, do I have enough killing force or would a heavier set up be better?

the bear outfitter i went with last year had no problem with spitfire mechanicals for bear. he said they do a awesome job. sounds like your set up is enough. good luck!
