Nice color...grats to him.

My first bear was about the same size...

they called me "Cub scout" back at camp.

Of course, I was the only one to get a bear that year.  :chuckle:

Congrats, but with those ears that bear will have a hard time making 135 pounds.  Not trying to demean or anything, but there is no way that is a 225 bear.   :twocents:  Nice shot!

Seriously, any bear is a good bear, congrats.
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.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

Definitely not 225, but that's nothing to worry about!  Bears can be really hard to judge.  Last year one of my buddies shot one about that size and it was the best eating bear we got all season.  Don't worry about it, just try to get a bigger one next time!  Keep on hunting!

 :yeah:

My buddy shot one last year that was 6' 1" and weighed 240.  That one barely reaches across a tail gate which is 4' roughly correct ??  :dunno:

But any bear down is awesome! Good job. Go get another!

Drop-tine....congrats on a successful hunt. I can tell by the smile on the faces of the hunters that they had a great time. The most important thing is the quality of the experience, not the size of the game. I think some guys get too wrapped up in the trophy hunting mentality and forget that not all hunts are trophy hunts.

It is fun to trophy hunt, but that is not what all hunting is about at all.
Congrats again on what appears to be a fun and sucessful hunt.

Wow, everyone hacking the guy saying he shot a small bear and giving him chit.  I will agree it is not a 225lb bear, but congratulations for killing a fawn and calf killer is what he deserves.  God job on getting a very nice hided bear!
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.
