So very simple, road hunt in may, pick a big one, make a good shot, keep shooting til it stops running!

There seems to be alot of threads regarding black bear hunting,and they are honestly one of the easiest animals to hunt.
Wait for snow to melt,head out in late afternoon,glass some clearcuts,look at 6 or so bear and then shoot the big ba$tard feeding on the side of the road.

If you cannot find bears while hunting in BC, you should not be hunting. The things are like vermin. Shooting them is another story.
