    Tyler, my 13 year old, got his first Black Bear last night. Just shy of 5 foot long. Beautiful white patch on his chest. Little over 200 lbs.

    Wool in his belly... imagine that

    made a great shot on him with the 7mm-08 and 139 SST's. 48 yard broadside, bear didn't go much over 30 yards. Found the bullet on the off side of the hide.

    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    Awesome man! I bet he was stoked! I can't wait until my kids are old enough to start sharing experiences like this with me.
     
    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    He has a cool blond patch on him. I am jealous!
     
    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    Congrats to your son on his first bear and a tip of my hat to you for getting him out there. That is a memory you will both share forever. Nice white patch too, that makes it even better in my book for his first bear.
     
    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    That boy is about to split his head wide open trying to contain that smile of his. Congrats to you both.
     
    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    That is awesome!! I bet you are one proud father!! I cant wait until my son is old enough to start shooting!!
     
    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    Awesome - Congrats to you both!!

    My daughter got her first bear 2 years ago when she was 15 - here's a picture of her and "Boo Boo":

    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    Man that is awesome!!! You can tell he was pretty happy about that from the pics. He is pretty lucky. I hear he has a pretty good guide

    . What else does he have on the plate for this year. Speedgoats, whitetail, and elk?

    When you say wool... domestic sheep or bighorn?
     
    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    Good job! Can't wait till my 4 year old is ready to join me. Just curious, how'd that sst hold up? Any idea on weight retention?
     
    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    Good deal Scott- thats a nice looking bear. Wondering what you have been up to - figured you must be out chasing some sort of critters. Gotta love the 7mm08:)
    Congrats to your son.
     
    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    Wow what a great kill for Tyler. I know you must be proud of him. Very neat seeing the white patch.

    Hey Scott, any chance of seeing that bullet? maybe a pic for the recovered bullets thread

    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    Wow Scott, thats real nice. He looks like a happy hunter, I know I sure would be! Beautiful marking on its chest. Tell him congratulations for me, great hunt and nice shooting.

    Got to like the 7-08 and those SST bullets are good hunting bullets. The boys and I have recovered several and they all performed very well on game.
     
    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    Tyler needs to shoot the 'Cup with you next year!
     
    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    Is that common that bears kill domestic sheep? Figured that was more of a coyote/mountain lion thing.
     
    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    Congrats to your son on the bear and congrats to you for getting your son into hunting.
     
    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    Awesome memories, great pics, great bear.

    i could argue that the bear was more "beautiful" alive

    It's time for you to go play hide and go fuck yourself...

    Yes it is, if you'd like to truly know.

    This bear was killing and eating domestic sheep. We helped the sheep herder out a lot by taking this bear. We are helping protect his livelihood.

    Getting 75 + sheep killed in a summer is a huge hit to the wallet !
     
    Re: Tyler, my son, got his first bear !

    Congrats and I hope he kills them every year for the rest of his life.

    and to crocket. I hope you fall the fuck out of that tree you are huggin
