HATE the phot angle of it as that just takes away from it, but that is a big bear nonetheless,

That is a brute! That Mark guy got a lion and a bear down there last year didn't he? Would sure like the rest of the story on that one.

I agree. Trying to make a whopper look bigger only detracts from it. Still a pig though.

Hound, Looks like one of those sleeved carbon barrels, about 1 1/2" diameter and lite as a feather.

I agree with Bone. The way the photo was taken makes the bear look as big as a Kodiak Island Brownie. Still is a nice bear.

Handle every stressful situation like a dog. If you can't eat it or destroy it, piss on it and walk away!

The photo is set up.  I have a 400lbr. and in the pic it looks small.  I am also 6'6'' 250lbs.  It is a big bear but It is dumb to make it look like a freak of nature.  Like the kid who shot that big farm raised pig with the pistol and sat 10 ft. behind it to make it look like it would weigh 2000 lbs.
