Best way to hunt. Hounds and handguns I couldnt agree with you more..... while Ive only upland and waterfowl hunted with dogs I sure hope one day to be able to hunt bear and mountain lion with some good dogs 😉 |

Thanks guys. This bear is more than an oversized rug. Many people are not aware that bears can be great tablefare. I enjoy eating bear, but even I was apprehensive of a boar this size. Out of necessity I deboned the meat for transport then trimmed and ground the majority. Thankfully the ground meat is quite useful and tasty. That is a good thing because the bear yielded three 48 quart coolers of processed meat.

Both Mountain Lion and Bear are on my bucket list. Congratulations! Great story. |

Someday I'll get a lion, the beauty is that I keep having to go back until I get one. The lucky part is that I got to experience it twice and hoping to get out for a third time!! It's not about the kill for me but the entire experience.
