(Thanks to Canoe Canada Outfitters in Atikokan, Ontario and Pat Cox of Atikokan IS for letting me update from their places of business in Atikokan, Ontario.) 2003 Fall Black Bear Bowhunt With Fred Lutger by Robert Hoague To This Hunts Home Page | Bill Braswell
This is Bill's 2nd bear hunt.
He took a bear on the first hunt also. His advice for bear newbees is,
"Patience. Let the bear come in. Take time to look the bear over. Use binoculars
to check his head for the notch between the ears."

Wind
was blowing at 8:20 when Bill Braswell saw a bear 15 yards away on the
other side of an evergreen tree. The bear went to Bill's bacon burn, knocked
it over and ate every bit of it and then went to Bill's game camera and
stuck his nose on it. Then he flipped the logs off the bait and laid down
on his belly and ate the bait. The bear was laying facing Bill so he had
to wait for a better angle. Finally the bear stood up and looked to the
North ... and turned broadside. Bill drew and shot. The bear ran 20 yards
and crashed. Bill heard a wheeze. The bear was dead.
