(Full Hunt Video Added!) Color Phase Bear
« on: June 03, 2019, 08:46:09 PM »
I had a great trip to Ontario with some good friends! We setup a new bait and on the first evening the Trailcam showed a huge black bear found the bait first. Later that evening a beautiful chocolate phase showed up. We let it sit another day before going in to hunt it. When I arrived at the bait the chocolate was already there  :scared:
It ran up the mountain and I quickly hung my stand and setup my video camera. Not even settled in good and the bear was headed back to the bait! I watched it feed for a couple hours hoping the huge black bear would return but after watching this beautiful chocolate I decided I wanted a color phase instead of another black bear. It took a while for the bear to offer a good shot. When it did I was ready  :archer2:
The distance was 13 yards, I was shooting the Palmer Longbow with a 150gr 2-Blade Magnus Stinger. Just a great hunt and an awesome bear!
I made a slide show of the trip but will eventually get the video of the hunt edited and posted.

Very nice!  You don't get a lot of chances at the color phase bears.  He'll make a beautiful rug and great eating.

Beautiful chocolate bear,congrats on a fine shot.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.
