There is more to my bear story. After a dbl lung pass through (the bear never bled a drop!) my bear ran 60 yards, then 30'up a poplar tree. I would guess the bear died within 30 seconds of the shot, while falling out of the tree it caught its back foot perfectly in the "V" of a small limb. What a bear recovery. LOL
I've never seen any animal that has been shot with a lung pass thru that has not bled at all. NO blood trail what so ever. This is under the tree and the only blood. Bears are just tough!!
