Can't beat that for a really nice bear. Why didn't he take the deer skull ? Somebody else will.
Because not everybody has to break a law just because the next guy might. 

Nice bear be the way. Congrats on a fun trip :tup:


What law is that ?
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

Fun Times ffhoofer! My legs are still feeling it from our little pursuit, but well worth it! I though I would add to your pictures of this awesome bear. Hopefully next year we'll pull a couple more bear tags and a huge thank you for putting me on my first turkey and that was quit the pursuit too!  ;) ;)

What a beautiful bear :tup:

Killmore strikes out again?!!  Oh man, he's got to be Jonesing for a bear...BAD.  At least he's a good camp cook.  ;) ;) :chuckle:

You camp at the cattle guard where he did a few years ago when he had his last tag?
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

I don't know the WAC but I believe it is unlawful to take deer or elk skulls with antlers attached that you find, (moose, goat, sheep) ....to deter poaching I guess.

Great bear! What a great coat and head! Congrats man. The find was cool too btw.

Nice chocolate bear!!!!!!! And to awnser you question i would say around 370lbs. If it was 185 lbs gutted and skint, than you double the meat/bone weight to find Live weight. I learned this from Crown Foods in Spokane. Its simple really, 185lbs=370lbs LIVE WEIGHT. And yes thus works for ANY animal. Congradulations on a beautiful trophy!!!! :drool: :tup:
