[QUOTE="Guy M, post: 523247, member: 8622"] Congratulations! That's great. Had a similar situation here in Washington several years ago. Was hunting mule deer with my traditional .50 muzzle loader, and following a ridge top in the Cascades. Way up ahead, maybe a quarter mile away, I saw a bear heading my way, along the ridgeline. I hunkered down and waited. When the bear was about 50 yards from me, I noticed that a cub was following! Oooops... By the time I figured out that I wasn't going to shoot, the sow was about 30 yards from me and still headed my direction. I stood up and said "howdy bear." She stopped. Stood. Huffed and puffed and took off for parts unknown with the cub tumbling along in her wake. It was pretty cool. Could have shot her with the muzzle loader, but decided against it. Bears are cool.
