Las, that was a crazy situation you found yourself in with that Sow and cubs. Cubs can sure create a bad situation with their curiosity at times. It’s unbelievable how fast a bear can go from lumbering along, to a full charge and cover ground in seconds.
Does anyone really know if bear spray works? So many stats say, yes, it’s a great deterrent; where other reports say it’s not. Just curious. Since you all live amongst the big bears. What’s real and what’s BS? 😎
Sometimes spray works, sometimes it doesn't. My issues with spray are there's no way to know if you have a bear that won't be affected by it until it's too late, and the wind can cause the spray to incapacitate you. Gun's are also on guarantee, but used properly they can be more effective.
