Since you are not taking the time to pack and join Mike and friends at the ranch, you have time to whip out that story about the time that .338 saved your butts. Please put it up top.

You have some great story's and have a talent for telling a story. Don't hold back and try to inspire us

I would have to be drugged to hunt a griz from a ground blind. I have read too many stories of people shooting multiple times with large caliber rifles in the case of a bear assaults, only to barely be able to tell of the incident.

I probably will never be able to justify the expense of griz hunting in the North, so it is a moot point with me. But it makes for a GREAT fantasy! IF I ever do get the chance, I'll have TWO back-ups since reading your post.

He was deer hunting and a good-sized blackie trailed him up to the very bottom of his tree stand. He was poppin his jaws the entire way.

My buddy arrowed him and he ran a couple hundred yards. Once he located him, the real work began. He went back to his house and retrieved a tarp and a 2-ton come-a-long.

He literally winched the bear along, 20 feet at a time, until reaching his truck. He winched the 350 pound bruin into the truck and took him to his shop after checking him.

He did not get finished with the bear until 2:30 am the next morning!!!! He shot the bear at 8:30 a.m. or so. That make for a woefully long day.

My friend is also a taxidermist, so he knew how to prepare him. He was able to save the meat. He said it tasted like a "bland pot roast." Maybe he just didn't know how to cook 'im up. <><

those of us who were hunters and outdoors people over the years refered to Black Bears as "blacks" and Grizzly as "Griz" we would never have even thought of the possible connotation

too many of them make their meals off of carrion and garbage dumps!
Also the meat must be very well cooked as they, like pigs, carry the trichina worm. Recently two Asian hunters became very ill from eating bear meat from their hunts in Canada, they almost surely ate it quite raw.

Goodness, you are too smart for me....I can't think on my feet that fast! You and a few others on this Forum would do great on that "Wheels of Fortune" TV show while I would have to wait in line to buy a ticket so that I could watch you win all that money. Please have a great day! Kelley (Texas)
