Well done, Jim.  You are a good storyteller as well.

Bears can attack people- although fewer people have been killed by bears than in all WWI and WWII combined.

Congratulations Jim on a fine buck! Great story as well. That brings back some memories for me. I was in Saskatchewan back in 1984. I didn't make it that far north though. I hope the rest of your hunting season is just as successful.

Cogradulation on an Alberta White Tail,

The season opened up here Aug 25th and I just came back from four days up there in a stand. 

I saw several nice bucks like that over four days.

Great work on getting that deer!

Congratulations on a fine critter.
You done good....really good!
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.
