Went out for a final bear hunt of the spring (well...maybe I'll get out again if somebody builds my fence, mows my lawn, cleans up my garage, and spends the weekend at my brother's wedding reception for me :D ).
I'd seen him earlier in the day, and caught up with him an hour before dark. Took him with a 140gr TSX from my 280AI (87 yards). Bullet broke the right shoulder and was stuck in the hide in front of the left hip.
While not the largest bear I've taken, likely the nicest hide.
He squared 6'1" w/19 1/8" skull (green)
