Bo Jackson talks about taking a bear with a .45

This is a great read... with some cool pics. Bo apparently loves bow hunting (who knew?)... and he reminisces about the time he took a 300-pound bear from point-blank range with a .45-caliber pistol.
"I wasn't scared," Bo says. "I wasn't scared because I knew I could outrun my white buddy. You've got to think about these things, man."
The way Bo tells it, he waited as long as he could, then he fired a slug into that bear's skull. The bear kept coming. His buddy yelled, "Shoot him again!" and Bo shot him again, firing another bullet directly into the bear's noggin.
I also enjoyed this quote:
"But I also know, if I was healthy, with good hips right now, I'd be the fastest 45-year-old in the country, or in the world," Bo says. "That much I know. That much ... I know."
