2002 Bear hunt

[Roofer]

My first year bear hunting and one came up on my stand this past Saturday evening. Sunday was the last day of the season. There were 4 people in our party and we ended up with two bear. My bear weighed 125 dressed out and the female dressed out 115. They aren't huge bear but it is a start.

 

Here are some pics.

That intially looked like some crime scene videos I've seen for work.  Surprised the neighbors didn't make the paniced 911 call.

Good job.  Pretty impressive way to get started!  Do you guys hunt with dogs?  Our bear season doesn't come in here until December.   :thumb:

Nice job !!!

As the saying goes my friend, "You can't grill it until you kill it!".

We can't hunt with dogs here in MN, but we can have bait stations. I shot mine with my deer rifle, a Weatherby 25-06. The other bear was shot with a 30-06. Both of them were close shots and blew right through the bear. We skinned it for a bear rug and froze it, but not sure if I will get the rug or a head mount.

Congrats, I have never hunted bears but would like to some day. Right now deer season is going on and I shot and hit a buck but could not find it. It was a little disapointing following the blood trail and then not finding the buck. But the buck is still alive so maybe I will get a second chance since its on private property. You can click on my sig and go to hunt pics to see some of the animals that I have taken.
