Would love to see a picture of the clean skull
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

:tup: what a toad. I can't wait for the sportsman's show so I can have mine scored

You dont have to wait till the show. Get on boone and crocketts website, there are several scorers in Washington. The website and find an offical measurer near you. Simple as that! :tup:

I did all that and more to find someone close to me as I am in Vancouver. All have some distance to get to and time like that is hard to get with having a new born and an open deer tag :bash:

That is a pig! Take it up to the Sportsmens Show and enter it in the contest. I took mine up and ended up getting a rifle for 2nd in show.

Wow really!? What kind of rifle? I will definetly enter it. How do I go about doing that? Just bring it by when the sportsmen show starts I'm assuming and the comp is at a certain time?

I think its the first 4 days of the shows like in Portland. Then the winners are announced the last day of the show. Last couple of years some have been ruger americans. Most of the time first 3 places get guns. Then there are a lot of other prizes for the other spots. Its just a fee to enter them into the books and the contest.

What they do is compare each animal to the current state records and that gives them a number. So your black bear will go against elk and mule deer and etc.

so i got my tooth age report for this bear.. 8 years old. young for a bear that big??  the taxidermist guessed he wasnt any older than 7 or 8 because his teeth were so nice. but he said that is decently young for a 450lb 20 inch skull bear...

Jessie, black bear are fully mature around 6.5 years old. Your bear is a fully mature boar, I'm sure if you didn't harvest him he would have been real close to 480-500 lbs by the time he hit the den for winter. Don't know for sure if skull would grow too much more than that, but may have gotten bigger weight wise in years to come. That is a great bear, congradulations once again Jessie.

It's amazing when you put 2 skulls side by side and see the difference that only a couple of inches makes! I put my bear next to my buddy's bear and only 1 1/2" makes a big difference. His weighed about 100 lbs more than mine but he got his in Nov. and I got mine in Aug. Great bear Jesse. I knew you had a winner!
