[QUOTE="Kmccord, post: 1483478, member: 99039"] I know we are talking about bear defense, but I do have an old High School friend who now lives in Alaska, he is a big time Bow Hunter he has already completed a Super Slam in his 40's, now he is working on a second super slam. He hunts exclusively with a bow only, I read an article he had even quit carrying a sidearm due to weight in the back country. In 2013, he sent me a picture of a Big Brown he had shot with his bow, the bear weighed in around 1200lbs, I asked how close he had to get a shot, he mentioned 30 yards, but the evening before he was 10 yards away, but couldn't find his sight pins on the bear due to the lighting, he eased out and came back the following morning and got him at 30 yards.. The man has nerves of steel, always did since I known him, I don't have that much courage without a backup. [/QUOTE]
