Here ya go guys.
Story---
"Got up to the mountains Fri evening in time to look for some hogs but saw nutn. Went to a spot I had in mind up top Sat morning and almost ran over a bear just up the road, went in and walked about 1/2mi and had 1 bear scramble down after smelling me, went a little further and jumped 1 from it's bed, nothing else the rest of the day, did loose my GPS though!!! Danggit.
Went to another area that afternoon that I had sent some friends to check out and they saw several bears and some hogs, we all went in, split up and walked a ridge, heard the bear in the tree and snuck up to it but could not shoot as it was 60ft up, sat on a log for about 20mins waiting for it to come down, when it did, hammered it right behind the shoulder my Phantom tipped arrow zipped thru and sailed out into space, my 2nd arrow hit it as it turned to come down the tree and just grazed the bottom of the belly, it tried to climb back up but finally gave up and crashed to the ground, DRT. I thought whoops when I walked up and saw it looked kinda small, cuz it sure looked big in the tree, but after getting everything back and weighing on digital scales it came out at 98# really suprised me. Took 2 hours to carry it out about 2 miles back to the truck, good thing to have some friends handy, thanks Terrell and Clete, enjoyed our hunt!
Anyway 1st kill with the new Hoyt Buffalo and I am stoked for the rest of the season. Good luck to all and congrats to all the other succesful trad hunters."
