Idaho Backcountry Bear

Pictured is a black bear I killed deep in the Idaho backcountry. I shot this boar at ground-level out of his bed 22 yards away. The arrow passed through the chest cavity, then the offside leg curled up next to him, then took a quarter inch deep chunk out of the boulder behind him. The bear traveled exactly 17 yards before it expired. The broadhead was still straight and intact, though the ferrule was slightly bent and it hit hard enough to break the nock out of the back of the arrow. After the hunt I pushed in a new nock and screwed on a fresh broadhead, the arrow spun perfectly and shot as good as new.Equipment used: 200 grain Maasai BroadheadGrizzlyStik Momentum Shafts4 low profile 2.5" vanes with arrow wraps 80# Bowtech Insanity CPX Jeremy Johnson - Bowtech Prostaff
