good bear
« on: August 03, 2013, 11:21:33 PM »
Got it done Friday after work, first time out couldn't have gone better. 190lbs hanging field dressed. So I figure 220ish on the pad. Great start to the season!

No, I've got quite a few now. I got a 300+ a few yrs back I had made into a rug, and had my first shoulder mounted, but I don't have a 3 quarter, always wanted one.

Nice bear.  :tup:

I see you're in Buckley. Ever go to Elk Head brewery?  I've hit it a couple of times and really enjoyed the beer and folks there.
