Call it tripling down. "uo close and personal" BECAUSE the buffalo had his dander up and we were able to knock him over before things got out of hand (buff #2). Up close and personal happened to a very nice outfitter (bears coincidentally)) named Bob Fontana, where a buffalo came out of nowhere and killed him outright. Rules of engagement are well discussed ahead of time between client and PH and he bases his actions on his judgment of both the situation AND the client's ability, but as is the case (such as the one here and Fontana's), things can go south fast.
Your stereotyping of ALL who post here and ALL who supposedly never do this when hunting bear is about as wrong as your logic here. so like I said, get off your high horse.


A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
