Congrats Beau on an awesome bear! Can’t wait to see what you get back from the tooth data! That ear tag adds even more to the cool story.

Awesome hunt! Bonus with the ear tag info, looking forward to hearing it! Love glassing with my Mavens! 

Solid boar and super cool bonus about the ear tag and being relocated! Congrats!

Hell yeah! Nice bear Beau. Can’t wait to hear about this one on the podcast

@James LaRose thanks James! I can’t wait either 

@Josh Alberts thanks Josh! And ya man you can’t beat the mavens!!

@Brian Lewis thanks Brian! First part will drop tomorrow 

Congrats! That's definitely a bucket list hunt for me in the next few years.

2022 Montana Spring Bear

I’ve been wanting to hunt spring bears for a long time, but haven’t been able to allocate the time until this year. 

The night of day 5, Trevor Stewart took me, Gary Allen and Justin Mueller up this nasty, thick cliff face to a glassing knob he found on the map. We were cursing Trevor the entire way up. 😂 At last light, I spotted this bear 2.3 miles away with my Maven B.2 binos. The next day, we hiked in early afternoon and found him out feeding early in the same small opening. Gary and I closed into 275 yards and waited for the perfect opportunity to get a shot. Gary found the ultimate perch to wait for him to step out. This was a group effort from everyone involved and I was just the lucky one to pull the trigger on this one. 

We butchered him under a pine tree with high winds and a storm blowing in before packing the meat, head and hide down the mountain back to the truck. A big thanks to our new friend Dustin for helping with the packout and a phenomenal dinner back at camp. 

When I checked this bear in with the game warden yesterday, he said that it was the biggest boar he’s seen all year and probably 7-10 years old. He had an ear tag that was traced back to being a problem bear somewhere in 2017 and relocated to this mountain range. I’ll know more when he calls me with the tooth data that he pulled. 

We worked hard for this bear and was just the icing on the cake to a great trip!
