Tyring to get himself some love today got this boy killed.

Butch was in the right place at the right time. No story except he was with a sow which they thought was a cub at first becuase he was so much bigger. The sow started to bolt and they realized he was a boar and dropped the hammer.

Right on! I've been working up there the last few weeks, haven't seen any yet but tons of peels and sign everywhere. Saw a spot where there was some blood and hair in the road where some hunters had drug one to their pickup though about a week ago.

Looks like a good one!

Butch has been hunting that tree farm for 10's of years. Good for him. Now I have to call him to hear the BS story.

Congrats! I think I met Butch last year, twice! Once in Hancock, and once over in e.wa. I had my 4 yr old boy with me if that rings a bell for him. What cartridge did he use on this? Was it an Encore?

His son killed a deer in Alkali and his son's buddy killed a monster Bull in Peaches Ridge. Those guys are hunting machines. Old school get out and get it done kinda guy's. They let me tag along if I'm a good boy.

If I was the only guy you talked to, you would no there is no bears in Kapowsin. I can't find one to save my life. I think my tag is starting to wonder what kinda man I am.... Leaving him in my pocket this whole time.

When I put this on here Nathan walked by and in 20 month old speach looked at the screen and said Papa Bear. As in...hey look it's Papa and a bear. He didn't want to leave the screen alone.

highside74 · « **Reply #28 on:** June 09, 2010, 09:25:15 AM »

Measured 6.5ft nose to tail

seth30 · « **Reply #29 on:** June 09, 2010, 09:27:21 AM »

Wow big bear.

highside74 · « **Reply #30 on:** June 09, 2010, 09:32:41 AM »

Well over 300 probably pushing 4.

Hey Rasbo he had no white on him and they said he was so black he looked almost Blue. Sound familiar.

bucklucky · « **Reply #31 on:** June 09, 2010, 09:41:36 AM »

Nice one!

GoldTip · « **Reply #32 on:** June 09, 2010, 09:46:02 AM »

Great looking bear, congrats. 6 1/2 nose to tail is a damn good bear.

highside74 · « **Reply #33 on:** June 09, 2010, 09:50:55 AM »

I went a petted him just a bit ago. Perfect hide no rubs yet. I can't believe how soft his fur is. They didn't stretch him out either. Just layed the hide out and measured.

TheHunt · « **Reply #34 on:** June 09, 2010, 09:51:09 AM »

I agree a great bear.

1 leaf camo is the ticket. Butch would say he's just trying to give them a chance. 2 leaves or more just isn't fair when Butch is in the woods.

powderbounder · « **Reply #42 on:** June 09, 2010, 05:44:46 PM »

Camo is overated...

PacificNWhunter · « **Reply #43 on:** June 09, 2010, 09:38:28 PM »

Nice bearski! Congrats

Wanttohuntmore · « **Reply #44 on:** June 09, 2010, 09:55:16 PM »

Definitely sure it was him now that you mention the Encore. Him and his son are quite the bear, blacktail, elk hunting team. These guys know there stuff. I've got his number, keep meaning to call him for some custom gun advice. They had one helluva long range outfit with him the 2nd time I met him! Cool deal!

Amazing how many on here I've ran into in the woods over the last year. Definitely a small world!
