This is the bear I took in Sept of 03. I took this bear on my way out from my bait site. He was 5'8"about 220, and a tough little bugger. I shot him three times with 150gr Honrady SST, first one entered on the left chest and exited right triceps area blowing out the bone. He rolled down the hill about 50 yards. I waited for the death cry and then I noticed him up the hill about where I had shot him before he turned the opposite direction and this shot went trough the right chest and went out the left shoulder. He rolled down the hill again. I waited I still don't know how he was able to move let alone run but he was back up the hill again. He turned again and the third shot was on the right chest and exited the left chest he rolled down the hill for the last time. After about 10 minutes I heard the cry and searched for him for the next 4 hours. I went home called up a couple of guys and we headed back out at at about 4 am. We found him at 9 am. Two large cedars had fallen some years back because they were completely covered by growth and where the two trees meet he was in a hole. with just one paw sticking out. Not the biggest bear ever but he sure is pretty, he has a white v on his chest, golden muzzle, and even my taxidermist said his hair was unique, it about 5 inches long and the bottom 2 inches or so are are dirty white and the top 3 inches are a reddish brown, his head is a chocolate color(or darker then the rest of his body). He is the only pic I have of him when we found him. I will post pics of the rug. I got him back about 4 months ago.

We have mostly color phase bears here, of the 16 or so bears that myself and friends have taken only one was black. Most people hope to get a color phase and except hope get a black.

its all about shot placement and dropping your bigger gun getting out of the truck and screwing up the scope forcing to use the pee shooter i may never use another gun again!
