Charged by Brown Bears while Hunting Deer in Alaska!
Balanced Life S2E6
In this video my mom, dad, sister, and I head out on a day hunt looking for sitka black-tailed deer out of Kodiak, Alaska. It was a beautiful day on the water, and we see orcas, bears, and a few groups of deer. After my sister shoots her buck, it decides to jump off a huge cliff, and shortly after we are bluff-charged by two brown bears! It was an exciting day to say the least.

      Thanks! The first bear that charged was actually a two or three year old cub, and then 15 seconds later the sow came. Where we were hunting it’s often said that a gunshot equals a dinner-bell in their mind… so it’s likely they were looking for a meal.

    • @MaxKobuk
      @MaxKobuk 2 місяці тому

      Cost Recovery is a special season at the hatchery where the hatchery allows the processors to bid on quotas, then the processor selects boat(s) to participate in cost recovery. Boats get paid a fraction of the normal price per pound, but the volume can make up for it.

      @@MaxKobuk well I didnt wait on your reply and went for it! I have a 54 inch mahogany riffe competitor now, found it used and wanted one like yours and thought it was the euro but it's not. Still a nice gun just the grip is bulky plastic so not sure how it will hold up when being thrown in a boat and banged around! Looks like multiple pieces of wood stuck together. The euro is teak this is mahogany I'm not sure how good mahogany holds up or what the pros and cons are? It's also open track so I can load the shaft easy from the top by just pushing it down and back till it pops in, the shooting line is the only thing holding the shaft in place like on yours. That was a good tip you gave about being able to shoot a bent shaft with this versus the closed track style. Your video here is one of my favorite vids ever about spearguns!!! If you ever make a video again can lay out and name some of those Hawaii fish because the names you said in this Video all sound similar to me when you say them! LoL I need a Hawaii fish lesson. I was stationed there and want to come back and dive there someday. What island are you on? Thanks dude :)
