Title: good bear
Post by: Tikka Bird Dog on August 03, 2013, 11:21:33 PM: Got it done Friday after work, first time out couldn't have gone better. 190lbs hanging field dressed. So I figure 220ish on the pad. Great start to the season!

Post by: Tikka Bird Dog on August 04, 2013, 12:14:40 AM: No, I've got quite a few now. I got a 300+ a few yrs back I had made into a rug, and had my first shoulder mounted, but I don't have a 3 quarter, always wanted one.
