Katie Schaefer recently killed her first bear.
Some kids grow up playing soccer.
Some grow up playing tennis. Some even grow up without ever having smelled a campfire when it' s ablaze up at deer camp. Katie Schaefer, however, isn't one of those kids. Deer have fallen to her but this year was the first in which the game she was after was more than 300 pounds and dark as night. But my mom and dad have always said how cool bear hunting was, so I decided to try it.
