Well, I thought the hunt left something to be desired, but I would draw the line at making fun of a guy because he needs a kidney. Or had other physical impairments. YMMV.

Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

Hunt enough and you will eventually miss. Maybe by a little, maybe by a lot. One of the reasons I like Craig Boddingtons writing is he admits to and wrotes about misses, wounded animals, and failures when they happen.
Except Boddington can shoot.

I never read Boddington bragging about a botched shot, maybe I missed it.

Will a bigger gun be used next year since CLEARLY this Tyran-a-sore-ass(ask the bear) didn't get the job done?
I mean it WAS 270 grains and you were glad you had all of them.
Hell, I can ass shoot a bear with a .22lr. I can cleanly kill a bear with a .223.

Three kidneys? Totally feasible.
But PAH-LEEEZE don't talk to me about waiting for a better shot. That's just not reality.

Thanks, I have seen a few brown bear, and shot one.
Did you recover it? The guide did, 8 days later.

Holy Smokes, just saw the tale scattered over (oops, I mean ALL over) the forum.
1. Saw a bear at a friends spot. 2. Ass shot bear with uber unit. 3. Phoned a friend. 4. Went home. 5. Came back with another friend. 6. Friend found bear. 7. Friend killed bear. 8. Friend took hero shots of me. 9. Friend hauled bear. 10. Friend gutted bear. 11. Friend skinned bear. 12. I wrote up multiple entries on internet forums of my awesomeness. 13. I was voted a badass mutherphoucer......
by me.
Well written. He didn't kill anything. He just wounded an animal and then had to call a guide to come in and clean up his mess. Let's don't forget the part where he offers to give meat to anybody that wants it, except the one friend that was recently in his house but got none offered. Well, I'd give away meat that was left in the woods on a hot night too. Damn'd if I'm going to eat it.

Bristoe,
Taught me the basics of shooting and fighting. Well lets hope you can at least fight without throwing an ass punch.

I agree, it sounds like a lot of these guys either never hunt, or hunt from a tree stand over a bait station. If you have never been on a hunt that turned into a bit of a goat rope because of a bad shot, you just don't hunt much. All the MR perfects don't fool any of the real hunters on this website.

Some tales better left untold... This is my take as well. It's not that a bad shot happened because they'll happen to all of us. It's the manner in which the story was told that leaves a sour taste in peoples mouths.

A guy told me several years ago that he was going to kick my azz so I kinda grabbed it but the idiot missed and hit me upside my head! What an idiot!! I sure laughed at him for being such a lousy shot!
The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.

Us conservatives love to pile on. The dog pack mentality is alive and well on the Fire. Anyone who hasn't made a mistake on a hunt hasn't hunted much but some feel they can rectify their sins by attacking others. They can remember to take care of the board in their own eye, and that refers to mistakes other than in the hunting field.

I would have hit it in the heart, but other things, well, maybe.i haven't. I only make for sure kill shots now, so I'm limited to sitting doves and ducks.
