If his body catches up to his head he'll probably get to 400# :chuckle:
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

A 400lb bear is huge. That is in the 200's still I think. When you get a 400lb bear on cam youl be like holy crap! Thats a huuuuuge bear!

I think in the fall he will go into the 300# range comfortably.  And hopefully by then his hair will start to grow back on his neck and side.  Should be a beautiful specimen by end of September :tup:

I agree. Good sized bear and with a good food supply he could be in the mid 300's by fall.

Im with Rad on this one. Wait til he's had his fat butt in the tree tops for a couple of months then put him in the freezer (the bear... not Rad)
Dandy bear, nice pics.

This bear (or others in this area) are starting to eat berries. Was out last week and saw tons of flat grass below berry bushes. Then the crap on the road that followed.

Think deer will hang around bears?

 They absolutely will hang around bears. I was filming a couple of big bucks a few years back during bear season when I saw a big bear step out of the brush only 20 yds away from the deer. I turned off the camera real quick, shot the bear, and turned it back on in time to watch the bucks walk over and check him out. I prolly shouldn't have shot him because I never saw those deer again.
