My first bear, taken last spring on a solo spot and stalk hunt....got him right before dark...got home at 2am, went to work at 5am.

Stalked up on a smaller bear "his sow" and passed her up. I had walked by this guy who was 80yards off the road in a small clearing. I saw him when i turned around to head back to the truck. Closed the distance to 40 yards and put a bullet through his heart He was quite occupied with clover...

That is right, 24" makes all time and 23" makes awards, Congrats on a huge grizz, Man those coastal grizzlies get big don't they. So much bigger then my scruffy little mountain Yukon grizz. Thanks for posting your pictures.

It's been a long time since I shot a bear. I might change that this spring.

Here's one from the "Olden Days"

Spring 2006
11 am when replenishing bear bait on one of the cutline we noticed wolf crossing at the distance of few hundreds yards. My friend asked me if I would shoot this far so I laid down and shot at wolf which was sitting and facing us by then. Wolf jumped up and slowly crawl in the bush. We followed cutline on quad and odometer shows 325 meters when we cam across massive blood trail. Friend had a smoke and then we went in thick Northern bush following blood trail. It was only 10 yards and white wolf was there. I grabbed back leg and pulled her out to the cutline.
This was my first ever wolf so I was very happy and ready for capturing this moment on film. I handed camera to my friend knelled beside wolf and ...instead of hearing camera shatter I hear roar from behind and there is big Black Bear standing 15 yards away on his back feet ...curling his lips and showing his teeth...
My rifle was couple steps away so I slowly moved towards it and picked her up...O cr.p scope is cranked on 14 power, so I am trying to aim along the barrel and this is not working ... setting power to 4,5 still no good as it is out of focus so focus down on AO and safety off ..I am aiming for the head ...pulling trigger and there is no click, nothing...at this moment bear goes down turns around swipes dirt with front paw and comes up again standing and growling. This moment gives me time to work my bolt and chamber it than aiming for the head an he drops in his trucks as I'm pulling the trigger... WOW

This bear was accustom to sound of shot and knew that there will be reward something to eat ..gut pile, wounded animal or killed wolf.

He is 7 ft from nose to tail and did not have his scull measured as it disintegrated on impact. There was no exit wound and I was shooting 7 mm STW 139 gr Hornady SST .

That's a crazy story...black bears aren't known for their aggression but they certainly can be...my Dad used to guide for black bears here on the island and still does occassionally, and had one charge him, the barrel of my dad's gun was less than 10ft away from bear when it dropped after my dad shot it....he came home and was shaking like crazy.
