My son got his first one this past weekend. Going to be tough to beat for the rest of his hunting.
That’s awesome! Happy for him.

Great bears from everyone, bear hunting is my favorite animal to target.

Took this 192lb sow bear yesterday in Maryland's black bear season. Shockingly, last night at 8:30 when I turned this bear in, it was just the 17th bear taken in the state on opening day, and it was the heaviest one turned in. Normally, there would have been 50-60 turned in with some bears being 400+.

For this particular hunt I was using my 416 Taylor with 400 grain Nosler partition, all thanks to @Mark458 who sold me this rig earlier this summer. Figured this would be a good tune up for my cow elephant hunt in 2 weeks.
