Re: Bear Hunt
A bear hunt sounds like a real blast, I'd love to go some day but It would probably be blackbear somewhere in in northern/western CO or eastern NM.
Since you have already been on 1 bear hunt is there anything you would do differently this round or any gear recommendations you would make?

I would definitely take two thermacells instead of just one .

Re: Bear Hunt
I will add that black bears are softer than deer , much easier to get a pass threw .

Re: Bear Hunt
That's about the same setup I use to use with my Widow for deer. Only they were aluminums, and 2 blade 125gr snuffers....virtually the same total weight. It shot 56lb and 52lb limbs.
