That is great. Lucky the bears didn't decide to try to eat your camera!

This one is kind of cool, brown butt, and brown stripes on shoulders

I believe what you are looking at again is signs of rubbing on the Bear.  The brown is the under wool.

No, it won't be all brown. Think of it as split ends. When a bear rubs, the guard hair breaks or thins. The result is a brown or reddish coloration. Basically a non-prime hide.

Oh, well.. :dunno:
As a first bear, with a recurve, I'll take it....
I suppose I could have leather made from the hide....

Were you going to do anything with the hide even if it is prime?

I am planning on a rug, but if it is patchy, I might see what can be saved and maybe make a quiver or something.

Looks like it'd still make a nice shoulder mount!  Don't let these guys get you down, just get out there and get an arrow in him!
