West Virginia Black Bear 11/02/05
Howdy fellas, thought I'd show you what I nailed this morning. He gave me a broadside shot at 20 yards and I put one through his boiler room. He crashed 30 yards later. He went just over 200 lbs. Shot him in Monongalia co, WV.
I shot this bear out of a Summit Stand I bought off browtine back in the summer... Thanks, Browtine!

Nice shootin' and really nice mountain state bear.
Mon county and Morgantown are where I was born and raised. Chased many whitetails and gobblers around that part of the world. That scenery looks familiar and makes me really homesick.
Congrats on a nice bear.
