I was curious about some of the hunters who get bears every year what they do with the hide. Do they mount it, get a rug, etc? I just got my first bear last year and although it wasnt massive, I went for a rug cause I have always wanted one. So, what do you do with it? Cheers! ;) |

I'm not sure how to vote. I've killed 9 bears, but only mounted my biggest, which was my first. I would say if its a gorgeous hide and color phase, go RUG. If its a big blackie go full mount. |

My first will be a rug, then I'd like a full mount, I just think it would look cool to have a big ol bear standing to greet someone as they come into a room. |

I have only killed one bear so far and I had a rug made. I always wanted a nice rug. My bear was 6'3" with a great coat. One of the guys I was with shot a 6'9" bear. I think I would have done a full body mount of that one. he was huge. I think i will only do another rug if I get a bigger black bear or a real nice color bear. If I luck out and get one over 7' I would try and get a full mount. The thing with rugs and mounts is they take up a lot of room and cost a lot of money. |
