First sit ever in the Mantis saddle last night. Had this dude come by at 15 yards. First shot ever out of a saddle produced my first bear ever. Gotta love this saddle thing.

That’s awesome! I wish we could shoot some of these aggravating bears down here in Louisiana. Post some pics.
Heavily hunted public land. The Mantis allowed me to get back in an area I would never be able to hunt w a traditional stand set up. I was in a tree that I would have walked by and said there is no way I can set up and hunt out of that. I used a combination of 6 Bullman Outdoor silent approach strap on steps and 3 of the Primal steps W the modified strap/rope I put on them 23’ in the air. He was 15 yards away directly downwind and never new I was there. The shot was true and double lunges him w a 100 grain Grim Reaper powered by an Easton Axis 400 arrow. Elite E - 35 bow. To say I am on cloud 9 is an understatement.
This is a pic of our nuisance animals. Louisiana Swamp bear, endangered species my a$$! I’ve been hunting around these destructive over grown coons for 2 decades.
Wow, even NJ has a bear season again. I figured you would have a bayou season for sure there.
I bet that’s the first Tethrd bear kill!!! Way to go!!!

Well, we did have a bear season again. Now we only kinda have a bear season again. Bear hunting has been outlawed on all state owned property this year by our wonderful governor.
