Guess my bear's weight (field dressed) + Answer!*

[Pilot_Hunter]

I could be wrong but isn't the answer to a multiple choice question one of the choices? 

Yes, the correct answer is one of the multiple choice answers (rounded).

How did you weight it?

The butcher weighed the meat still on bone and then I grabbed the hide/head/feet and stepped on a scale.

You've got to watch those butcher scales...you pay by the pound don't you?

Time for me to win the guessing game. Get on it, Pilot!

[Pilot_Hunter]

And the winners are...the 9 of you who selected 140lbs! The bear looked fairly big and I was surprised to see that the meat/bones only weighed 100. The skin/head/paws weighed 40 lbs. When I skinned the bear, it had almost no fat on it. The butcher was really surprised about that too, he thought I removed the fat. The bear had a really thick coat too.

I was just curious about what you guys thought it weighed because I keep seeing posts about "I saw a 300+ bear today but didn't get a shot." When I got my bear, I thought he'd be over 200, even when he was field dressed.

So just to let you know internet posting weight is double actual weight.  So what you have there is a 325# bear.  Don't let anyone tell you different

hahaha! ohhhhhhhhhhhhh, ok I get it now!

I guessed 170 but am not surprised it was 140. That is not a small bear by any means, nice work. I do believe most people (on the internet) would call that a 250 or even a 300lb bear... they can certainly be deceiving.
