Help me judge this bear...

I have some private property (126) acres with a ton of bears. I shot a bear in 2012 and could not stand the taste. So I wont shoot another for the meat, I will give it to someone...
This guy looks like a good bear for a mount, or rug..
How big is he?
Boar or sow?
I wanna have a nice rug or mount then Im done shooting bears..

Looks rather full of himself, all strutting around like he owns the place. He probably does that thing in the woods, too.

Sorry, only pic I have. Just snapped a pic of my computer screen when I checked the trail cams.. I was thinking 170 or so. There is a huge choclate sow in the same area, she has two cubs.. Might wait on her this fall if the cubs are big enough, or gone..

I've decided that the best way to eat bear is pepperoni and summer sausage. I figure I usually have some venison and elk or other things that are good as burger and I don't need to eat bear that way.
Girlfriend loves it too. The main reason she wants me to get one (she likes animals and doesn't want me killing any) is for the summer sausage. I'm kind of a picky meat guy, but Del Fox does a good job. In the future I'm going to bring them sacks of meat to avoid the "cut it off the bone" charge, a flat rate which I think is in the neighborhood of $80. To just have them process pepperoni and summer sausage for you I believe its just a per pound charge.
I categorize bears in 50 lb increments, because I can't tell any better than that, but this one is in my 150 lb category.

IF you are looking for that one bear and then to hang it up.....
This one is a PASS.
