Bang.

With winter at midstream the Sportsmen only have a few season available to hunt.  One being rabbit's.  This past Saturday my son went rabbit hunting with one of his buddies.  Doing real good in the morning with 3 to their collection.  Then while stomping around a brush pile and a tree root cavity to his surprise a 250# black bear emerged from his mid winter slumber.  He said he was only about 5 feet from the hole as it rolled out.  I asked my son if he ran.  He said who me or the bear.  He said we both did but in opposite directions.     

At that point I would have been headed home to change clothes....  It's bad enough when those bunnies come out of those brush piles. They tend to startle me, even though I'm hoping one comes out.
