Dad gum it Mark, you are getting so dang ugly. Jeez, why did you have to go and pick on a bear for? I guess the antelope kinda put you in a bad mood or something.
Nice bear, and a great shot. You deserve it. Hope the rest of your season is just as good. Take care man, Anthony

Congrat, Mark.  Now why the heck didn't you join TBG in the fog last week?  One, you would have had lots of help dragging it out.  Two, you could have pointed out to me what a bear looks like and had me shoot it!  Nice shoot!

Mr Vic..

Georgia has a huge black bear population...state record is well over 500 lbs...in the Okefenokee is SE Georgia there are some real monsters as well.

Great Smokies have a very healthy population -in the springtime we usually end up with 50 or 100 coming out of the mountains and getting in back yards and garbage and stuff all over the Northern part of Atlanta metro area.

Nice Pictures.   :thumbsup:

I drew a MI tag this year. (took me 4 years)    I didn't have any luck last weekend but I have 3 more weekends to hunt.  Do you know how much the bear weighed?

Way to stick with it Mark!!! Very cool!!!  Dan
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

Mark,

You must have been very quiet stalking that bear, you even got him to lay down on a log, close his eyes, and fall asleep so you could get your picture taken with him. Dang your quiet......

HAHA  no repect huh!

Good job buddy!!!

Pat
Still learning.......
