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.
I agree with the others, you need a new tradition!
What do you do when you shoot a coyote?

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.

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