Maine Bear Pic and Story

sremington · Aug 30, 2006

Some of you may know that bear season just started on Monday here in Maine...

Rod Davis one of our contributing writers for the Maine magazine just emailed us from the woods of Maine. He is at Libby’s Camps in Oxbow on his vacation and bear hunt. He sent this short story with a picture of some other campers having some bear hunting success.

This is what he emailed us. Short story follows the photo:

I am forwarding you a neat photo for the magazine. The first night of bear hunting here at Libby’s was marked by a first-time kill by 18 year old Meghan Pidgeon of Salem, Ohio. She is here with her Mom, Dad, and two younger brothers, all bear hunting.

She shot her bear on Monday at 4:30 PM, wounded it, and caught up with it later to finish it off. She made a perfect shot right behind the shoulder at 100 yards, but hit nothing vital. The bear was nearly dead when they found it.

She is very proud and they are a neat family of hunters. Her brother shot a bear on Tuesday and they are looking for it now.

More later

Sweet bruin. Kudos to Meghan. Her smile says it all.

She looks excited! We haven't heard back yet on the weight. They are still out in the sticks somewhere and I am surprised they even had access to a computer. :shock:
