If I had the drop on him it would be through both shoulders on the front. If he had the drop on me anywhere brown and furry.

I shot a Grizzly four years back. One shot quartering towards me, dropped and rolled down a hill, wasn't alive for more than 10 seconds.

If you are SSS you shot it in the head :mrgreen:

There's still no physical evidence that it was actually me.

No recovered bullet=no evidence:tongue:.

I still like the theory of another shooter......from a grassy knoll:wink:

Work let you back on the computer???:)
