CouesBuckhunter Report post Posted May 28, 2011 Just thought Id post this. This is my second Archery Black Bear.I put in over 30 hours in the stand but never got a crack at this big black boar or cinnamon bear. Finally yesterday at 7am he came in for a drink, perfectly broadside and my PSE BowMadness XL sent a Swhacker tipped Carbon Force arrow right in the sweet spot. The bear ran 15 yards up the side of the canyon before falling back down, he died literally within 5 seconds. My dad captured it all on video. Hes the bear I wanted. He's 350+lbs, and has a solid 19inch skull. Funny thing is that my dad had to leave for the airport around 10am so everything worked out perfectly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did you have fun skinning and packing him out in just 3 hours? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What time did he actually come in for the fatal drink? P.S. Did you have fun skinning him out? 35b,7am,and skiining him out was fantastic, trying to get it all done so my dad could leave for his flight in time. The meat, my pack, and the hide and head were a good load for a mile hike out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CouesBuckhunter Report post Posted May 29, 2011 Congrats Eric thats a real big blackie. YOU LOOK SMALL NEXT TO HIM. haha hahaha I guess considering that I am 6'2! Bear hunting is a true thrill, It is very different from deer hunting and when you get a big one its even more different because it makes alot more work and Its alot more exciting. Thanks everyone.
