Sorry guys, this is the first time trying to post a picture, I forgot to add any comments.

This is my first ever trad kill. Alaska, Prince William Sound. Spot and stalk. Im just as proud of the stalking part as I am of the bear. I had a great time. I stalked up to 16 yards. He never new I was there. My first arrow spined him and my second arrow was a pass through and he died in a couple of minutes. It was a very exciting time. I feel really blessed. I thank God and My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It was an Awesome time. I was using a bob lee 66lb with Beman ICS arrows with a Zwicky Eskimo bh. Total weight was 560 gn. I have to say that Zwicky's are a awesome broad head. After hitting the spine there was no damage to the head. It was ready for another shot. Thanks to all who answered all my questions and help out with my set up. Gilbert
