Don't think I would like to try this. Having first hand knowledge of tazer application, they don't always deploy when the trigger is depressed. Not to mention other factors involved in trying to get an effective strike with both prongs. Throw the fear of being charged by a bear into the mix ... I'll go for pepper spray.

I just keep thinking of that beef jerky commercial.

I can just imagine a bear grabbing the taser and tasing me over and over with a little smile on his face.
