I remember reading somewhere that native North Americans would shoot bears by climbing a tree and waiting for the bear to climb up after them so they could shoot the bear in the eye with a 22 while it was paws were busy holding on. I guess it's slower climbing than running and can't swipe at you with it's claws while doing so but damned if you'd catch me trying that.
I heard a similar thing about hunting caribou/moose in the Arctic, locals will wait for one to swim across a lake or river, then pull up next to them and cap them in the head with a 38 revolver.

If you think bears are slow climbing trees watch this video https://youtu.be/9oqq70wx76U
