Meditations For Bear Hunting


Over the years many late night hunting conversations have been distilled to these short but significant statements and questions. Compare these thoughts with yours while sitting on a stand. If you haven't thought about them before, we recommend you ponder these during your next sit. We hope they will provide you insight into the nature of the Bill Ritchie-style hunter and guide.

Here I sit... Alone.. So Quiet
Hunting is older than man, special, because it also made man.
Big Game Hunting........the animal is not the true game; .....the "Big Game" is controlling yourself
Once man and bear meet, the game is not to shoot, but to become a student of his nature.
What's the difference between an externally and internally motivated hunter?
Bears are intelligent... cubs spend two years learning from the sow...
Since time began, its been leading to this. I was born, he was born.
For years, the bear and I have travelled independently to meet...
When he appears, what's my role? How do I make the Clean Kill?
In this day and age, how does a bear get to be seven years old?
Where are the vital areas in a three dimensional rotating bear?
What's the real reason I sit with these *&_Æß@!! blackflies?
Do these guides really know their stuff, or is it all horseshit?
Did I put a round in the chamber? Safety, what safety?
Can I Pass on a bear and feel good about it?
Is that a shadow? A bear? A man?
The intent of the hunter is to kill...
How long are three hours?
Do bogeymen exist?
Where am I?
