This kid started shooting last year in a youth archery night we hold every Monday night. He liked it enough to buy his own bow and really got practicing. Bought his first bear tag this spring and took this neat bear with his younger brother in the stand with him. Not the biggest bear in the world but it's his first ever bow kill! Congrats BJ on getting your first!!

Abscess im guessing that he was rubbing cause it itched from infection. Nice bear congrats
From: loesshillsarcher
02-Jun-14
It appeared to be a lipoma upon disection. Fatty tissue inside a well defined lump. The skin lays down pretty normal afterwards. I was wondering if it was a result of fighting, but I don't think so. He had some scars on his nose but the lump didn't appear to be a spot that was healing from a wound. Alaska for sure

Rumor has it he was wrestling the bear for the last donut in the barrel and the bear hit its head on a tree?? CONGRATS NEDLY!!!!!!!!!! That is a great bear. What is the skull size on that beast?
From: loesshillsarcher
02-Jun-14
It is not a booner. When I shot I was hoping for that. Oh well. Not that important to me. He was on his hind feet in the middle of a "meadow" when I first saw him. He was marking a solitary tree that was out there. He dropped to the ground and came right to me. Lucky. He was walking like a silverback and it got me really excited.

Shot a beautiful chocolate with Outland Outfitters and my guide Jody Patterson in Manitoba. Shot him from the ground on a 15yd frontal shot with 15yd recovery when he came in and wouldn't even let us get the bait out. Saw lots of bears, but this one was special with the way it went down. Great hunt, great food and a great time!

My wife and I shot these good bears on May 22 in Northern Manitoba. Her bear was 65" nose to base of tail, 48" girth, 5 1/8" front pads. My bear was 66" nose to base of tail, 46" girth and 4 7/8" front pads. She shot hers with her hoyt and 100 gr. VPA's, dead under 20 yds and no death moan. My hoyt and 125 gr VPA's did the job in about 25 yds and no death moan either. Both broadheads have been touched up and await deer season. No score on the skulls yet.

Jersey, nice bears!!!! Did you score any of them?
From: JerseyGTI337
08-Jun-14
Thanks the 6'9 scored 19 1/2 ( picture by its self) and the black in the pic above was 6'6 but only scored 17 5/8, it had a long but narrow skull. My colored bear was smaller at 5'11" and I didn't bother with the score. The measurements were all from nose to base of the tail. I have been in a good number of bear camps and this place is very high on my list for great bears. Each hunter saw many mature boars and I passed up a great boar in the 6'6 range. I also got to see 3 different color bears while on stand.

Hello from Ontario Canada! We are in the midst of the first step (hopefully) of getting back our Spring Bear Hunt. The "Trial" introduced this year is in progress. I was in NB hunting near Jemseg last week and came home empty handed, waiting for the big one. Very happy as I had a lot of action, just not the one I wanted AND I will go back in the Fall as my tag is still good. I returned to Ontario for our annual do it yourself hunt with a good friend, but not in the Spring, not our usual Fall hunt. My first night out a sow and two cubs of the year came in for some neat bear watching. A bit later a decent bear came in and did not offer a shot. Just before the end of shooting, a different bear, about 150 lb boar came in and I just had to take him. This is a very special bear for me. Now I am just staying at my buddy's helping him and his girlfriend get their bears. She had one bear come in the first night but was not offered a shot. We were rained out last night, but things look great for this evening. best regards and hope to see you folks from down South, start to come back up here in the Spring some day. While not in the guiding business ourselves, my buddy and I hope to see our Ontario Outfitters get back in to Spring Hunts for non residents. This will be a HUGE victory against the antis. How many jurisdictions are every successful in getting a hunt restored? All the best from Canada, Canuck! Oh, the bugs are insane up here this Spring!!!!

Just wanted to get this right! thanks for your patience! Canuck

thanks Bou! Here is a really important addition! When I went back to Ontario from New Brunswick for our Ontario "Trial Hunt" I hunted with two very good friends. My best bud Steve and his special lady Hilary. Hilary is a new bow hunter, that is insanely into bow hunting. She baited our sights alone, when we couldn't be there. It was in a really scary area where we bait in Ontario. We are do it your selfer's completely. This is the very first arrow that Hilary let loose on an animal with a bow! The bugs were crazy AND the night before we put her in charge on tracking my bear (which she found). Her bear died within sight.

We call this the 29 hour, no sleep, 545 miles in the vehicle, 40 miles on a boat, bear :)
He shot it at 13 yards, it went 40.
I've never been real in awe when walking up to dead bears, mainly because ive shot only small to average ones and they always look bigger alive. This one...blew me out of the water. They are amazing animals. I hope to get one next year when I legally can begin hunting them.

I was with TAZ the week before and he had that monster on the game cam. The very best congrats to the successful hunter. I believe he and his two buddies all scored with TAZ that week. I passed on lots of smaller ones on my week and am going back in the fall to try again. Would be glad to take one like the above but will settle for a personal best (which should leave a lot of bears very nervous!!!:)

I have no hero picture to post, but due to the dedication of my outfitter, Dave was able to find my bear after I had to come home. He stated that it was pretty nasty but he salvaged the skull for me. It is being cleaned for me. So add me to the list of successful ( but delayed) bear hunters.

Dr. Dave's buddy John Daniels shot a howard Hill longbow for 50+ years but had to recently switch to a compound for health reasons. He got the job done on this SK bruin. It was cool to have a couple guys in camp with well over 100 years of combined bowhunting experience.

Scott Vyvlecka's bear went less than 12 feet after his arrow went through it. I heard him shoot as I was walking in to the bait and I thought at first this bear was sleeping beside the bait; 2 other smaller bears were standing nearby looking at it laying there.
