Congratulations on a great bear! I think just being around Ryan helps you kill bears. He is a bear magnet!

Congrats Earl!!! Very cool story and a really nice bear.   :thumbsup:   You sure couldn't have picked a better bear hunting mentor than Ryan!
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

Congrads!  I had always said I would never hunt bear, but this may be changing.

Thank you to everyone who read my story and checked out my pictures, I really appreciate all the congratulations and support.  This hunt was a big deal for me as I have been trying for a while to harvest something with my recurve. Thanks for allowing me to share it with you all.
