[QUOTE="Sevy, post: 1406990, member: 95968"] So I just found out I drew a spring bear tag in an awesome bear hunting unit. Furthest I have shot an animal was 500 yards and I am hoping to stretch my legs on this hunt. I understand the general consensus is 1000 or 1100 minimum fpe on deer or elk for an ethical kill assuming I can put it in the right spot. Bears are tough, do those numbers hold up with bears as well? Seems like my first instinct would be more than that. I don't want to be tracking a wounded bear through the brush because I underestimated their toughness. [/QUOTE]
