30 seconds ? Thats time for two or three shots
Closer than I came today , The only action I had was fresh poop on a road at 1 p.m. , wasn't there 1/2 hour earlier.

ya i cheked it out for about 30 seconds thru my scoped 444 marlin

i thought he was just too small - im no expert but im thinking it wasnt even 2 years old yet.....

my friends would laugh at me for bringing home a bear the size of a medium golden retriever....

But for me, not enough time to rule out cubs.
Better to let walk than to come up to swollen and dripping titties...

I hunt to keep myself happy not my friends........

Cool color on that bear,I seen a brown and a black walking together last weekend and they were neat to see together,both had beautiful coats but I think were even smaller than the picture of the one you posted.
Have a look at these and tell me what you think ? Picture from my I-Phone so not the greatest.

we had to call a "cease fire" at the range a couple of days ago until Yogi got out of the way. Showed up out of the bush at the 400 yd target stands and walked up the hill to the 500 yd stands, then into the bush.

Your bears are definitely bigger weatherby, you can tell by the proportion of the head to body ratio.
