Congrats.
 
I am sure you are off a little. Nice bear for sure.

+ or - I have been around 10+ bears and my buddy 30+. A lot of guys know both of us well and I have got several messages saying we are low ball-in him at 180.

Been around bears or weighed bears? Big difference.

I'd say you lowballed him a tad bit. The pics aren't the greatest for estimating, but I would bet 200 - 225 live. Probably not much more. Definitely a great looking bear.

Nice bear he looks bigger than you and you look over 180!  That bear has the body frame of a 250-300 lber if he was taken in the fall.

Oh I know you know bears and that is why I asked. I have been around live, and dead bears on scales, lots of people that know bears have been telling me easy 200 maybe 225. I just didn't want to be high on my number. it's good to hear people like u that know bears say 200+ thanks.

Great job!  That's the rug my wife wants right there - gonna have to get serious on that project this fall.  I've seen quite a few bears weighed, and I would be very surprised if he's under 200lbs.
