Two years ago, almost to the day, I moved up to the Colorado mountains and wondered when I’d finally see a bear. I couldn’t hardly wait! At this writing, I’ve seen more bears on my back patio than any other wildlife - short of the big Bobcat that frequently hangs around outside. It’s now just a matter of time before I finally bump into one, walking around the house...

You better start shooting those porch bears. They figure out pretty quick there's better food inside. I had to break a neighbors window to shoot a bear that wouldn't leave a bed room. Blood and poop everywhere. The neighbor also thought bears on porches were too cool. No joke.

You got to watch those bears that lay in the woods nx to houses. They are like dogs and can tell time; they know down to the minute when you come and go. Can knock a wooden door right off hinges or go thru window, then they set to tearin up.

In Alaska, we shoot every bear we see; not suppose to be around people. Twice I've had to shoot blk bears crawlin in on me; front quarters down, butt high just like a cat on a rabbit in cut hay field. They come in real slow, their ears moving independently all over. Both those bears were within 6 foot of me when I killed them. Most run when you yell and way arms.

At least from 1949, no bears had been seen in the 500 acres of woods near me. Last summer, I got a neighbor’s call saying, “You’ve got two bears in your back yard!”

Their two dogs barked, and both bears instantly jumped up huge pine trees. Wouldn’t think they could move so fast...

“It’s now just a matter of time before I finally bump into one, walking around the house...”

I hope you’ve been checking under your bed every night! ;)

He is what you do when you encounter a bear....
You just slap them around.

Any bear that I see around my farm more than once a year gets a dirt nap upon second sighting.

Got tired of paying the vet bills for my dogs, having to rebuild the livestock pens and the chicken coops.

Most importantly neither my wife or I can outrun a bear.

2 338 Lapua rounds placed in the correct location takes care of the problem permanently.

always double tap!
