My Ontario Bear Hunt
« on: June 11, 2018, 12:09:14 PM »
I had seen this bear the first hunt but he had came in right at dark and I decided not to risk a shot. We had trail cam pics from that spot and after reviewing the pictures, we decided if I saw him again I should definitely shoot!
We only hunt evenings so I went back to the same spot the second evening. Around 8:30 I had 3 cubs come to the bait and feed alone. About half an hour later a sow came down the trail but wouldn’t come to the bait. She would circle in and out real nervous. I figured the big boar was ruling this bait. About 9:15pm I see another bear coming in. It was the big boar! The sow charged him and the cubs ran up trees. The boar wasn’t going to let the sow keep him from his dinner. He charged in and went straight to the bait barrel. With light fading fast, I didn’t waste any time getting him in frame on my video camera and readying myself for a shot. He pulled a donut from the barrel and turned broadside. I drew my bow and watched the Nocturnal nock zip through him sticking into the ground on the far side. He ran about 40 yards and I could hear him struggling to breathe. Double Lunged him!
Got the hunt on video, I hope y’all enjoy

Supreme Leader and Captain here, Corey you really need to get away from shooting these Large target.

Hone your skills on the smaller target like these Vietfrogs I shoot. Anybody can hit those Big animals, lol.
Everything I have and have become is due to the Lord and his great mercy.
