wanted to add to post about bear but not so everyone could see. only time we took gun in was on diy when tracking bear on poor hit, then never had to use it.i've arrowed 4 bear, one at 6 yards, last years 435 lb at 14 yds. he made p&y and b&c and ranks as of right now #22 all time ontario archery. just use common sense and give respect you do to any game animal, and you'll not have any problems. if really concerned, buy some bear repellant. have never used it but they say it works great. don't worry about it so much and just enjoy the hunt and the rush!!!!!! don't know of any bowhunters killed while hunting black bear over bait..... oh, can see pics of the big one on my profile page if want to. have two albums on there
