Yes, and a bear in my back yard took a 12 gage slug in the shoulder that broke its shoulder bone, made mincemeat of its heart and lungs; and it still ran about a hundred yards crashing through thick brush before it fell.

That is scary. I’m glad he ran away rather than at you!

Many, many moons ago, my dad and I were hunting whitetails out at Fort Knox and my dad hit a spike buck three times in the chest and neck with 12 gauge slugs and the deer kept on going for a quarter of a mile. Field dressed, he only weighed in at 85 pounds.

I hate to think of what a grizzly that weighs 850 pounds could do to you, even after taking three slugs.
