Ya....... if that bear weighs 175, then no way in hell do I want to lug that rifle around cause it's must be the size of a Barrett 82A1 50bmg

Be come one with Nature......... Then Marinade it.
One moment you're flying south for the winter, then - BANG - gravy.

Definitely more than a 90 pound bear. The pics make her look a little smaller than she really is but I would say 135-150. I finished editing the video for anyone interested in watching the extended video. If you look really closely on the kill shot you can see the bear rolling about 1.5 seconds before you hear the shot.

Really great job - the video was cool, but the hard work no matter the size of the bear, is inspirational!
Looks like you got a good hunting partner!
Way to get it done!

Thanks for all the coments! It was a lot of work. Yes, I know the bear is not huge, but I want meat, don't care about the trophie. Sorry for the delay in getting pictures, I am pretty slow when it comes to computors
Thanks for the video Shane!
