Hope he recovers.

My friend's dad used to tell us "ya poke the bear, ya might get hurt." Never really made much sense until hearing a story like that.

Read another article and Facebook.....His arm is in real bad shape....His son either killed it or beat it off of him.

ps....PETA type folks are going crazy....I'm sure they'll try and ban all bear hunting soon.

I'm sure things would have ended better if California allowed side arms during Archery season.

I think they could, since they were bear hunting.

Steve, you're right, they just changed it in April this year. Big game OK to carry, Deer, no.

Story from local forum is he did not wait long enough after the shot and ran up to the bear. Bear was dispatched with a firearm from one of the other two in the group resulting in an investigation. His eye is pretty bad also

Thanks for the update. Glad there was a gun in the group. Hope the guy recovers his sight.
