We have one guy here calling for their death. Another saying they should have hid the sin like any good hunter would. It’s like a trip down anti hunting lane.
I wouldn't bet money that wasn't his den, as bears return many times in the first few weeks after waking up.
No one will know for sure.

The point is he was mostly in a hole. Enough that they had to yell at him in an attempt to get him to expose enough for a shot. And then when he didn't, they shot at him anyway.
Very, very poor decision. The extreme wind and range compound that poor decision.

Not saying they aren't hardcore, because they are. You would never catch me doing a hunt like that even in my prime.
But they made a very stupid decision taking that shot. That should have been Lesson #1. They don't acknowledge that at all.

The rest of it has some take aways I guess.
Biggest takeaway should be what NOT to post on social media.
Unfortunately, they are after viewers at any cost. Even a black mark on the sport.
