Hackett Senior, Brady Hester scores with his Balck Bear archery season harvest this past weekend in Zone 2.
Hester knew he was in a good area when he found plentiful bear sign deep in the woods on an acorn flat. “I seen the sign, and hung a stand” stated Hester.
After hunting for about a week, Hester didn’t have an exact time to hunt specifically. It was more of a specific window of time. But, being a wild animal, and a black bear, nothing is certain. “I got in the stand around 11:45am and the bear came in around 3:45pm. After the shot, the bear went straight down a steep hill” added Hester.
Hunter Post accompanied Hester on the hunt.
