this guy must have seen alot of bears before.

Danny tanner would have given it one to the hip!

Seriously, I've never hunted nor seen a bear in the wild.
Awesome video. I'd have been scared sh!tless watching it climb the ladder.

That was a pretty decent bear.

Is it just me or did that bear's face look like he got caught in the cookie jar when the guy spoke? He also seemed to be in no real hurry to get down either. Eeery...

He would have smelled me when he was coming up the ladder from where i SH$% myself.

After watching a smallish black bear just walk up to and tip a large dumpster in about 10 seconds that three men couldn't tip, I think I'll not mess with them.

We also had one that opened our ice chest and was crunching the frozen water bottles in it. Right under the pop-up tent trailer we were in.

Never been around bears myself. I would have been quite tense in that situation.

 

[kh496f]

wow.. yes I would have been pretty nervous..

That was awesome. I love being in the wild with god's creatures and have stuff like that happen. I probably would have been very tense in that situation and I'll bet like others have said that guy had a decent sized rifle just out of frame if he needed it.

I probably woulda said something as soon as it touched my stand as he doesn't have to make it up. He could tear the stand down and then you fall 15 feet, hurt, and who knows where your rifle is at that point.

Just use your beard fist to punch the bear in the nose.

Ok, I have a really good story about a guy that works for the same company I do.
Several of them put in and got a good price on a bow bear hunt in Canada.
They went up there, and this guy got in a stand with his bow.
At the end of the day, he came in with a story, that the biggest bear he had ever seen in the wild climbed up his stand.
He shot it in the mouth with his bow, and the bear ran away.
He sat in camp for two days professing his fear of going back into the woods with a bear of that size.
It overlapped with MZ season, so the outfitter let him go out with a rifle.
He shot a bear that evening, and while the guide was field dressing it out, he saw an arrow shaft in the mouth of a cub...........
Huge bear indeed
