Cancer survivor,a real Sourdough Alsskan, & mentor of mine, backed up a friend on this bear

Then Dick backed up another friend when this bear charged them as they were skinning the first bear.

[image]
The next day he shot on of these bears and backed up the fourth hunter on the other He uses a .338 Win mag with 250 handloads. [image] Dick is the oldest of this group by ten years and had to show these younger guys how to get the job down properly and effectively.
4 years ago I was at his house saying goodbye as he was going in the next day for a 50/50 shot and cancer removal.
