Great job! :thumbsup: Ain't it great to get them with those "old timey things?" Adds to the experience and makes peoples jaw drop. What calibre, load, weight of bear, etc.?
 
Looks like you'll not be needin' any Moose Juice or Snot fer a year or two. :thumbsup:
 
Bill,

I'm happy for you, and you got him with the Flinter! too cool!
 
ATTA BOY BILL! Congrats!!! nice bear..any story...maybe a "bleepin" story? :haha: :thumbsup: RC
 
Nice animal Bill, great way to kick off the hunting season, you should be the Bear oil king of your area.

.58, .570 ball, .015 patch, 110gr FFg Goex, 1/4" 20 ga felt wad. 102 yard shot a little low thru the right shoulder, took out the heart.

I'm guessing around 180 lb boar. The carcass weighed 111 lbs at the butchers.

Wasn't that you who got a bear last year too?

Mtn. Rifle

Two years ago. Didn't get to go bear hunting last year and got skunked deer hunting as well!! At least things are starting off better this year.
