    No offense to the OP but I'm not ashamed to say that video's like this do nothing for me. It's seems like everyone is trying to up the ante by getting incredibly close to their dangerous quarry before they make a shot, like some kind of testosterone thing. How long before a hunt like this goes terribly wrong? Sure, the quide sitting there had a high power rifle, but that is in no way an insurance policy against something going south. Or people calling in big bull moose to mere yards?? That's a freight train sitting a few feet away that could go into high gear at a seconds notice! Crazy.

    I agree.
    I wouldn't feel one bit sorry for the guy if he hadda been eaten by that bear.
    sensationalism, that's all this was.
    trying to be better than the other guy.
    oh yeah? well I shot a grizz from 20 yards.
    oh yeah? well I arrowed one from 12.

    I also feel that long distance shooting has become a sensationalist thing as well.
    You made an 800 yard shot? Well I did 1050! With my eyes closed to boot.

    Now if you can make that shot and are confident in it and the animal is dead, then good for you, but lets not make this a pissing match, ok?

    Amazing country and bear. It is possible he did not have a good clear shot from where archer was until closer. Sure the camera man had a good clear view, but when he did shoot the camera had a bad angle and looked to be the worst time to shoot.
