This morning I was fortunate enough to use my bow to punch my Wisconsin Grizzly Bear tag by taking this 800 Lb. monster. My garden will be safe after I take the other one ive seen. I was only able to take this massive boar. The other one escaped before I could get a shot. I brought it down with a single arrow from 30 yards. The beast didnt travel 10 steps. Complete pass through. 700 grain arrow with 250 grain Cutthroat single bevel broadhead.

One of the smaller cubs returned while I was packing out game bags of meat so I took it as well.

The little and young ones are good. Meat falls right off the bone.
They only eat the finest grasses.

And yes, I'm serious.

Ya know, there is a subspecies of grizzly that roams the broken woodlands edges of the Iowa prairie. Maybe related to the Wisconsin strain, but the color phase is a lighter blonde in Iowa, owed to our sun drenched, open plains. [emoji6]

I saw several digging up holes in the back corner of my acreage...

Back in the day in PA/MD, we shot them and cooked the young ones up. Time to introduce the family to whistle pig stew. The tag is over the counter here in Iowa. In fact, its unlimited and free of cost.
