Don't let the pic fool you, this is only a 110lbs sow, but that didn't stop me from enjoying my favourite meat! This was my second trip up for the fall bear hunt (4 days at a time) first time was unsuccessful, nothing but racoons but I baited this spot when I left. This WMU opened after labour day so I hunted this old spot. Had 4 bears on the bait, three about this size and my target bear. Passed on smaller bears on 2 sits but decided to take this sow on the last day. 15 yards heart shot. While we were packing this bear out one of the others showed up as well, luckily he buggered off quickly without trouble.

Here is a short clip of the shot when it was taken, in GIF form. Let me know if the GIF doesn't work!

This is our target bear. Our target bear is one my dad has been hunting for 6 years now. He hasn't shown up during legal time until now and he is MUCH bigger since we last saw him. Hoping to head back at the end of the month for another go at him.
