Got a call from my ole man saying a possible bear in his friends field. Neither one could make it out there to check, so I went out there and ended up shooting this hog at 16 yards! Definitely blessed and owe a lot to my ole an and his buddy for the opportunity to take this bear

How did you weigh him?

Pretty darn cool!  I've never eaten a corn fed bear.  Would be very interested to find out how he tastes.
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."
