Huge NH bear

[Ruff Hunter]

When the ears look short and stubby like that, the bear be a big one! The Department doesn't allow baiting in my game unit due to all the "endangered" grizzlies, which aren't actually so rare at all.

Back to the Parker issue, any reason you couldn't legally take him with a Parker loaded with 00 or 000 buckshot? Now that would really be something, a genuine Parker bear gun.

We are lucky here in NH. We can bait them, hound them and stalk them. And we still have a very good population.

I had a bear attack my Britt while pheasant hunting. I shot it with a 12ga. DHE improved cylinder and 7 1/2 shot and it killed the bear. I wrote an article for the Parker Pages about it that was published a few issues ago. I call that gun my bear gun now.
