    • @bearhuntingmagazine
      @bearhuntingmagazine  4 роки тому +2

      Derek Lopez this story was simple but had two main elements: older man with a rich hunting history reflecting back on his hunting and realizing his own weakness. Secondly, he choose to pass multiple bears while waiting for an older one - this is solid conservation and what hunting over bait allows for. Targeting older animals takes the emphasis off the younger ones. Also, the film showed the utilization of the meat of the bear and spoke of the film maker’s friendship to James. It was all nuanced. Thanks

    As an older person and having killed a bear myself years ago, I know that these guys earned it getting the bear out. My bear wasn't nothing special at all and it was a handful for just me to get out. Just being still able to get out and to do what you love to do is awesome when you are older. Being successful is even better.
