Like Jim said, there is a lot to get through everything on a bear is tough, then figure a 1400 pounder? Our baby black bear here dig up ground bees nests and chew away while the bees swarm them, they could care less. I think the video answered that question!

I used to live there, Kodiak brown bear is solely a trophy animal, I don't think anyone eats them. Massive top of the food chain animal. To take one with a bow (sticks and stones) is the epitome though no shame in using a rifle. You need that distance for penetration, you noticed the lighted...

Fat little suckers

Nothing manly there:D! Mossy horn there

We have competitions here like that too for both animals and fish. For most long term hunters it's not so much "imma real man", with blacktail it's generally a sign of how hard a guy worked/ time (years) put into scouting and learning an area. As well as dumb luck.

Yeah, some day I'll try to hunt the easy ones :D Blacktail is all I've known and it takes work. This was the easiest one yet I'd say. Yes! This buck I was hiking, the big guy was a tree stand. 25" goes a long way in a rack!

There's a monster up where I shot that one today
