First bear

December 21, 2011

Richard Duffy, 74, shot this bear with his bow on the last day of bear archery, Nov. 18. He has been hunting bears for 25 years and this is his first bear. In the photos are his hunting partners, Richard Duffy (hunter), Dan Jordan (stepson), Earl Duffy (son), Diane Gerg Imbrogno (taking photo). All were present when Rich got the bear. It weighed 220 pounds and was shot in McKean County with his bow.
