Who cares, that is one beautiful bear!!!!   :drool: :drool:
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

275 easy, but would not even think about size, he is down hard.

don't stone me but I'd say 240
just try to imagine him soaking wet not all fluffy but without the weight of the water.

both of the bears I have taken were much less than I initially guessed.
I'd bet if you take this one home you'd be surprised too.

where's BearPaw when you need him to weigh in... he should know better than anyone

Got some big haunches there. And that neck is long so I don't think length is an issue. 275. Nice bear. Shoot him!
