Default MA Bear Season

MA bear started yesterday. I will not get out until next week, but my buddy went out and killed a very large sow yesterday afternoon w/ the bow. He is checking her in this morning... He's guessing her to be about 225lb dressed.
Another buddy brought his girlfriend out and she shot her first with the rifle. It dressed 170lb.
A couple other friends will be out over the next couple of days. I will let you know how they do. I will try and sneak out someday next week.
I'll try and get some pics on soon too.
