Sows usually have a bigger rump...and a longer snout...

boars have a more blocky snout, and are have bigger shoulders...

basically...if they are big in back, they are a sow,

big in front...boar...

but that is just what i have read

Thats exactly right Saylean.  Its easy once you have seen a few.  The harder part is deciding if the bear is big.
If you aint hunting, you aint livin'
