Most shooters that are killing bears with hounds are shooting their animals at about 20 or 30 feet away, when shooting the bear out of a tree. If shooting a bayed animal it can be 5 feet away. Shooting over bait can be 50 or more feet away.
Hunting in the traditional manner, walking thru the woods...will often be measured in yards...100 yards or so.
Traditional manner being no hounds, no bait. Each state has their own laws regarding hunting. For example in California it is ILLEGAL to kill a bear using bait.
