Congrats on a nice bear, good job!
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

Great photos and good looking bear.  He has some nice character to him.   :tup:

I agree with the others, you need a new tradition!  :puke:

What do you do when you shoot a coyote?  :dunno:

Nice bear and cool photos!

Aren't bears the highest carriers of trichinosis?  Not sure if that effects the liver but I don't think I'd be eating any part of any bear uncooked.

Looks like that bear has seen his day. How far did you have to pack him out? Enjoy the worms.  :bdid:
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

It's funny how many of those "hunting traditions" are usually told by men over 40 to a younger generation, yet you never see them partaking in those traditions.   :chuckle:

That is quite a pack, glad the back held up.
