Sow bears and boo boos - let's see them.

[ida homer]

The Go Hunt boys dusted some cubs last year, and I mean some straight up 65 lb. rug rats.
We had an f'n hay day on their IG comment section.

Serious question, if one of the baby bears they shot was a sow, and it was with another cub,
is that considered shooting a sow with cubs?

Don’t forget about taking advantage of any handy stump! Because this was my first opportunity at a bear of color, I just couldn’t resist. .

BTW - as this mid-80s photo shows, I was a pioneer in the use of the MSR for hunting. I wish I still had that rifle.

You were completely ready to mow down a whole herd of colorful cubs.

First bear. Yep, when I walked up, I said oh my really?!?!? It’s all good though. Though it may not “fill the freezer” it will make for some amazing grub. That’s only one, and as I see it, our “vet forum poster” which sets the standards, is at least 3 ahead of me. Look out dinks!!!!! Here I come!!!! Hahaha.

Fun thread

Repost/edit. I put the wood block in the wrong place for a sufficient hashtag photo. DARNIT!!!!

I’m learning though. Baby steps

You know they're a dink when they are laid across the back rack on a 4wheeler and don't across the entire machine.

Wish I still had that pic

No I didn't kill the bear either.

I was kinda hoping there would be some big bear photos to offset the dinks....just so no one forms an opinion.

Wrong thread for that. It’s all in the title.

Oh, I get the title.
A few hogs to offset would be okay.

Never actually killed a bear myself, but I've "guided" alot of people to bears here, around home. My family has killed 3 sows over 300 pounds (330,311,307) only have pics of one. Wife's sow was 187, my dad's 137, last critter he ever killed. Probably half a dozen others in the 100- 225 pound range killed off my baits or by family members. Can't find the pictures of them

I’ve only had reverse ground shrinkage on a muley once in my life. No way I could shoot a bear. It would no doubt still have milk on its lips. Prolly get attacked by mom trying to retrieve it.

Yes it is very real but not just mule deer but every species I have ever hunted suffers from ground shrinkage. Just don't ask for pics to prove it please.

Somewhere on HT, @Greenhorn posted photo after photo of monster bears. Perhaps he could add a link to those on this thread.
