You shoot them vertically above you or behind you. The goal is that the bear runs away from the sound. If you shoot at a bear it will go past the bear so when it explodes the noise will scare the bear towards you.
When I'm clearing the trails I shoot straight up to get them all to scatter.

If faced with one I'd aim for his mouth while he roars. It's a gamble for sure, but I've gotten pretty good with these things. If he does charge, well, that's where the spear comes in.
