Aspen Hill AdventuresMy Bear Hunt Video
Hopefully this link works:
BearThis is video from my June 25th Quebec bear hunt. Not the best quality video but I think you can tell what happens. I was bow hunting, the bear came in right after a big thunderstorm passed overhead. The bear is completely soaking wet so his hair is flattened out.
He came storming in looking for other bears trying to ambush them.
After the bear walks away I draw as soon as I see him coming back. He is still walking when I aim and let the arrow go. Once the arrow hits him it stops only because it hit the opposite shoulder preventing a pass through. The thick arm bone was completely shattered.
The boar went 50 yards and gave a death moan. His pelt was perfect, he weighed 245 pounds.

DocThat's awsome. I'm hoping to meet up with my friend and he's going to show me how to upload some of my videos.
Very nice bear.

PeglegNice job, Ann! Is that a bait barrel in the video? They won't let us hunt over bait in Washington anymore.

Aspen Hill AdventuresThanks for the compliments guys. Yes Peg, it is a bait barrel. There is about 5 pounds of dry dog food in it, that's why I only bow hunt them.
The woods are so thick there it would be impossible to spot and stalk. There are no trails.
I am going back the first week of June. This is a nice area for black bears. No local pressure. I've got some openings if anyone wants to go (hunt with anything but handguns).
