Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Alaska Homer Bear attack

and the comments... bear spray... fools all over the place.

From the CM article:

"The bear scat reminded Woodman of the gun. He doubted he’d need it, but if he did it wouldn’t do much good stuffed away. He pulled the chunky pistol out of the pack, loaded it, and slipped it in his pocket."

Not only did he have the pistol and know how to shoot it, he took it out of his pack and had it handy when needed.

My respect grows.

I can certainly see how someone would stick their foot up to protect themselves. This isn't something that you likely train for!

Thanks for the link!


Excellent writing on display there.
