We followed the red carpet into the muskeg swamp only a short distance and found my bear....

The arrow entered below this arm.

...and exited through the sternum. It was like pulling the plug on the oil pan.

The night before and on this night, two other bears had been shot and lost due to poor placement and the lack of blood. I was very happy to have taken a good, effective shot that resulted in a quick recovery. For a while the "trad" guy was the only one in camp with a bear skin. My buddies settled in and each got a bear or two by the end of the trip. I never did see a better bear and am happy with how this hunt turned out. Thanks to everyone who helped me prepare for this an my, all to few, other bowhunts. This site is the best!

congrats, Norb...good shooting. Nice blackie. On my one and only so far bear hunt I was on one of those late night after dark ARGO rides out- 7 or 8 miles and pitch black...a moose almost ran into the dang ARGO and scared the bejeebers out of me I tell you!

Norb... great story and great shot on the bear. Looks like he has a very nice coat.

I won't tell you how nervous I was on my first ever bear hunt... at least not in public.

Ray... interesting stuff is always happening on bear hunts. I think it's the puckery stuff that makes it fun and it ain't always the bears giving a guy the puckers. :D

Congratulations on your first bear. I am hoping to do a bear hunt in Oregon sometime next spring or fall. That story just got my imagination running in all kinds of directions.

Thank you for sharing and giving me thoughts to start off my day!

Cool story, and it didn't take too long to get to the good stuff. That bear hunting gets in your blood. Way to go. Thanks for taking us along through the pics and story.

Nice shot! And a nice bear also. You are going to love the meat, it is delicious.

Thanks for sharing your hunt with us.

RayMO · « **Reply #36 on:** June 02, 2006, 12:55:00 PM »

Norb...way to go and the shot was great.

Thanks for sharing

beachbowhunter · « **Reply #37 on:** June 02, 2006, 08:04:00 PM »

Thanks guys. The outfitter wasnt keen on us taking the meat but we brought back about 20 lbs or so and it is at the sausage maker right now. He says that it will be good in his Hungarian sausage recipe. We'll be able to share it better as sausage.

Joe D · « **Reply #38 on:** June 02, 2006, 08:39:00 PM »

Excellent story and pics Norb. Congratulations! Thanks for sharing.

Whip · « **Reply #39 on:** June 02, 2006, 10:42:00 PM »

I'm not sure what it is with those Canadian outfitters and their ideas on bear meat. I know other people feel the same way, but I have always loved bear meat. Even my wife likes it even better than deer, and she's not a huge red meat eater. Go figure.
