WRONG! (For safety reasons you should reshoot this video). When you deploy a Bear Banger, you fire the projectile OVER YOUR OWN HEAD. Not at the bear as you improperly suggested, and NOT ABOVE the bear as you incorrectly stated. Bear Bangers are designed to scare a bear away from where the noise is coming from. If the noise is above the bear he will still run in any direction (maybe in your direction). Plus, upon your advice, you'd have to be extremely familiar with banger's deployed ranges, angles of arc, and delayed timing to actually deliver a Bear Banger ABOVE a bear. And just kind of a side note: This video would have been better if it was not shot in the winter when bears are hibernating.

Hey Tom I know you have a lot of experience on the 70-300 what are you thoughts on this lens. I will be using it on a crop and full frame if I pick it up thanks in advance.

+Kyle Pilkey I like that lens a lot! the VR works hard, and the lens is noticeably sharper at f8 tho most of the time i had it at f5.6 and got some great bird photos from it. Now that i have the 80-400mm i sometimes miss the versatility of carrying around a light small good telephoto. hope that helps.
@kylepilkey8 жыл бұрын
+Tom Spencer Nature Photography (Spencer's photos) thanks that does help, I've heard people say above 200 its really soft so it scared me away but I'm looking for a telephoto that is easily packed around. sounds like it might be the lens for me.

Wow, that is loud. I had an encounter with a black bear once. I was reading in a nice secluded sunny spot and along came this big black bear I looked at him and he looked at me and I turn and ran one way and he turned and ran the other way lol! So in the case of black bears I think they are probably as scared of you as you are of them :)

If the bear is too close to fire in her direction (bc it would send her your way), would you fire in the opposite direction, or straight up or something?

personally i would fire it straight up slightly ahead of you because most bears will run away the same way they came from.. (not always)

If it bangs does it automatically scare you? Would you like to take a time-out in a safe space? Hopefully you haven't been scarred for life. Ask mommy to re-order your anxiety pills.
