Not that Bob- realy want' spear hunting, but Cape buff on a spear- yes- that's a feat- must have had centrefire backup, too.
; Since it's illegal to pack handguns here, the Spear is all Bob had- yes the bear could have charged- makes the hunt more exciting, doesn't it. He said it was too exciting to repeat the next year, figured he was lucky & quit while ahead.
; Boars on a knife - on purpose? - HA! I'd rather hunt bears with a spear with Cross-tree & a sword for the coup-de-gras - THAT makes sense.
