Ya, I took him into my bear spot, and he killed the moster I had scouted out and videod still bummed I didnt kill him when I had the chance but Im glad he did.  We worked together at Zetec for about 3 years before I moved on.  How do you know him, do you see him?


Ya I know him.  He lives in the same town I do, and is also a Perry Tech grad like myself.  I see him around town quite a bit.

How did you measure the skull and weigh the body?
Wild Turkey, Walleyes, Whitetails and Wapiti..These are a few of my favorite things!!

Are we ever going to get to see it or do we have to wait for a magazine?
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Hate to be skeptical, but this really sounds like a fish tale, or somebody smacked a GRIZZ.  Once a bear gets over 20, "they start" measureing in 1/8 increments....for a reason... 23 is unreal.  Whats world record?
