"Here are some pictures of a Grizzly that was hit on Hwy 200 near
Lincoln, MT on Oct. 17, 2007. They estimated it was over 750 pounds. Kinda filled the
8'0" bed of the truck." (From forwarded email)

Dat is a whole lot of Mato!

Zeesh, Montana and its small bruins...grins

Dober

Makes you wonder what the vehicle looked like.

I bet it left a mark!

Driving down to Big Sky the other day I saw a dead moose in the ditch, bet that one left a mark as well.......

Dober

impressive bear! esp for a DSMF'er!

Mark,

As near as I can figure,my huntin spot on the Yellowstone River near Savage,Montana is very close to where Lewis and Clarke fought off the grizzly attack from their small boats.

Although that part of Montana is not technically considered Grizzly country today,the Grizzlies don't seem to be reading their maps too well and appear to be going where they take a notion.

I don't think I'll hunt sheds this year in the willow thickets by the river without my revolver. I'd rather be a little over cautious than be bear scat.

Doc-I believe you're totally right. Imagine sitting in the stand on the island and watching old Ursus stroll by...?

Dober

Wow.




(Note to self: If you go to MT for elk, bring big backup gun)

Better yet, carry a good gun with good bullets, know how to use it and don't loose it...grins

And for crying out loud always hunt with someone slower than you...!
