Please tell us of your experience hunting brown bears. Surely, you've got plenty running off at the keyboard as you are.

I may well have scratched my big-bear itch two years ago... But watching that "from the boat" hunt sure made it look like a great option for hunting brownies! I could see doing something like that, Kodiak or elsewhere.
Beautiful hide on that bear she got. Most of the coastal brownies I've seen have more of a darker brown or reddish brown coat.

Guy They darken as they age, generally... I have spent many months hunting Kodiak from a boat and it is the best way to go.
Mark Begich, Joaquin Jackson, and Heller resistance... Three huge reasons to worry about the NRA.

Content\editing very cool, if using a loaded rifle like a walking stick muzzleup, and a 300 lb "kodiak" is cool, then ya, kudos...

So you've never hunted brown bears yourself? As if it's a big deal that someone shoots an animal on day fifteen of a hunt they might not shoot on day one. Big deal. Your criticism makes you seem petty and mean spirited. Maybe that's not your intent?

Anyone know what caliber she was shooting?
Adrenalin + hike up the hill + offhanded, she did good.

Chamber a round, use a loaded rifle for a walking stick...what could go WRONG??
That "music" required ear pro.
Don't ask me about my military service or heroic acts...most of it is untrue.
Pronoun: Yes, SIR !

Great video! It's been twenty one years since the last time I've been hunting or fishing in Alaska. Sure would like one more trip there with my old buds before I'm done.
